On Tuesday, June 22, 2021, the Mahoning Valley Historical Society presented a Community Revitalization Award to YNDC for the renovation of 1810 Volney Road at its 146th Annual Meeting at the Tyler Mahoning Valley History Center.
The property is often referred to as "The Monastery" because of its strong association for decades as a Carmelite monastery and worship center. The structure's original use was a single-family home built by Emery McKelvey in 1927. Upon acquisition, YNDC staff engaged Faniro Architects to develop three, market-rate apartments and a Neighborhood Action Center for public gatherings.
Many thanks to MVHS for honoring our team with the Community Revitalization Award!
