SitemapNew homes are tough to come by in Youngstown. In fact, outside of the main center downtown, there have been only 20 units built in the last 15 years. That is changing, however, with a new project to bring homes to the city. Thursday, a ceremonial groundbreaking was held for six new homes being built on Mineral Springs Avenue. “The more we build, the more community we build, and the quicker we can realize Youngstown coming back as a community that cares about each other,” said Councilman Julius Oliver. Construction has already started on the homes. They will be three bedrooms with two and a half baths, plus a two-car garage. “When you buy a home here, you’re not just buying a house, you’re also buying into what’s happening in this neighborhood,” said YNDC Executive Director Ian Beniston.
