Title: Flooded Downtown Building
Post by: jay on February 27, 2015, 05:53:48 AM
Apparently a water pipe froze and then broke in the former PNC building in downtown Youngstown.  It has been said that the water damaged areas of the first floor and basement.

Is the former PNC building the 16 Wick building?

For those of us in the know, it is the former Dollar Bank/NationalCity Bank/PNC Bank Building. I don't know if that answers your question, but the answer for us is as clear as crystal clear pure spring water on a sunny day in spring. I would include a photo of the building, but since most of us know the building I shant bother. It's the building on the North West corner of the Square with a clock.

They are the same building. It is being renovated into a hotel, yes?

Peggy, the building you are thinking about is the Stambaugh Building, but the one Jay is referring to is the old Dollar Bank Building.

It's an absolute crime what happened to the Dollar Bank. Next to my bank People's Bank/Society Bank/Key Bank, it was one of the best in Youngstown until Mickey Monus cleaned it out.
