Unfortunately, most of the entertainment venues in the downtown area do not have a summer season.
Downtown Youngstown needs an on-going outdoor entertainment program for the summer months. I would hope that events could be planned for at least two or three nights per week. The existing restaurants would surely benefit from such a program; it would give people something to do, and it would further help to revitalize the image of downtown Youngstown.
The Federal Plaza Committee finally announced that some outdoor live entertainmant will take place on Fridays starting in mid-June in downtown Youngstown. The location will alternate between the BW-3 restaurant and Anthony's On The River.
I still feel that entertainment is needed on a few more nights of the week and near each of the restaurants with evening hours.
