Give your input on Youngstown's public spaces at exhibit

YOUNGSTOWN

An exhibit exploring improved ways to use public space in Youngstown will open at 6 p.m. Friday at Youngstown State University’s John J. McDonough Museum of Art.

The event, called Changing Views | Designing Youngstown’s Future, will feature planning and design work done in the past year by YSU economic-development specialists and students from three other universities.

“The goal is to build consensus with stakeholders and turn these ideas into tangible results,” said Dominic C. Marchionda, city-university planner with YSU’s Regional Economic Development Initiative [REDI]. “We want to get a lot of input and opinions from residents and give people a voice.”
