East High School

Well, according to a certain poster on the vindy boards, "East has some minor issues to fix, but all of the safety systems are up to code and the foundation isn't cracked. They've got permission to bring in furniture and will likely have their official occupancy permit next week."

Youngstown's sixth ward councilman recently talked about the foundation cracks while he was a guest on the Louie Free radio program.  He gave the impression that the cracks were a serious problem.

Hi All,



My partner Corey Maizel is a coach for the new East High School Football team. He said that the foundation is cracking because the laid it on a very very soft/wet ground. Also.... they had to rewire the building already and do many other "bandaids".

I was on the Vindy site today and it was noted that there are problems with the new East High School that will jeopordize its opening. Anyone hear or know something about this??

We drove by today and the old building in completely gone. It was very dark and forbidding-looking but I'm sure it held lots of memories for those who passed through its doors.

The new building looks nice, and in contrast to the old, is very light in color.
