YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – John Angelilli, property manager at the renovated Gallagher building on North Hazel Street, has experience with demand for downtown housing. About 18 months after opening the building, occupancy is above 90%, he says.
“We started out with 21 of the 41 rooms for Airbnb units,” Angelilli says. “That went well, but we have so much demand from traditional tenants we are no longer doing Airbnb.”
Rooms in the renovated building feature exposed brick, where available, and include in-room washers and dryers, utilities and internet access. Fully furnished options are also available.
