YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – The Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County this month completed a two-year renovation, transforming it into a community cornerstone.
The renovation kept the historic charm of the 1910 building while adding a modern 6,000 square-foot space.
Additions include an event center, a culinary center and study spaces. The remodeled grand reading room reflects the original blueprints, including the Wick Avenue steps.
