Boardman, Ohio

One of my classes is conducting a charrette in the city of Boardman, Ohio. It is a suburb of Youngstown.
Here are some shots I took while driving through parts of the city.

The commercial part of the city literally has almost no sidewalks. It is very un-pedestrian friendly.
This intersection was one of the only parts of the city where there are sidewalks and the buildings are close to the street edge.
Good place for a multi-purpose trail.
There are no design standards either. Signs are all over the place and there is no control of how they look or are placed.

Has it really been a month?
Here are shots taken from the bus tour recently held for the grant committee for Neighborhood Connections.

Another July Day on the Euclid Corridor

Views of Stonebridge 5 on a July Morning

Stonebridge Phase 5 is moving along - slowly but surely.
I am very anxious to see how the finished project will look.
I am equally anxious to see renderings of Bob Corna's nex phase along Center Street.

More building skin shots . The building looks much smaller from this angle.
