YSU has become adept at demolishing Wick Avenue mansions, doing a very good job of erasing Youngstown's history. It's a shame, really. One of the few things Youngstown could bank on now is its history, but its leaders are too blind to realize this.

was the media covering the demolition?

This demolition was funded through Youngstown State University. YSU owns the property.

It's a fact that there are many buildings in Youngstown which should come down. Unfortunately, the historically significant Peck-Schoff House was not one of them.

A crying shame.

How sad. So many houses of less importance need to come down. Why did this treasure get priority? Who funded this - the city or the university?
