YOUNGSTOWN – A firm hired by the city envisions a $34.5 million overhaul of 20 Federal Place with apartments mixed with office space on four floors and a bowling alley, bar and malt shop in the basement.
But it wouldn’t be the city, which has owned the downtown building for more than 16 years, making the improvements.
Instead, Steadfast City, the St. Louis firm hired to create the vision, would search for developers interested in the building starting April 1 and with one expected to be selected by mid-October, said Doug Rasmussen, the company’s president.
The city purchased the building at 20 W. Federal St. in November 2004 after Phar-Mor, a once prominent national retail store company, went out of business. Before it was the Phar-Mor Centre, the company’s corporate headquarters, it was the flagship location of Strouss’ department store for many decades.
HOWLAND The sale of the Norman Rockwell paintings in the Boy Scouts of America art collection could create “a feeding frenzy on a global scale,” according to one Cleveland auction house.
The BSA’s decision to include its art collection among the assets it will sell as part of a bankruptcy reorganization proposal also is increasing interest among the general public to see the collection while they can at the Medici Museum of Art.
Deba Gray, president of Gray’s Auctioneers in Cleveland, said the works would appeal to the private and corporate sectors as well as museums and dealers. Gray previously worked for Sotheby’s in Chicago before starting her own auction house with Serena Harrigan.

HOWLAND The Norman Rockwell collection on display at the Medici Museum of Art is one of the assets the Boy Scouts of America is offering to sell as part of a bankruptcy reorganization proposal.
To protect itself from victim compensation lawsuits from former Scouts who say they were sexually assaulted as children, the BSA filed for bankruptcy in February 2020, less than a month after the art collection arrived locally.
The reorganization plan filed Monday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware would sell the BSA art collection and other assets to establish a fund to settle those claims. The art collection, which includes works by Walt Disney, J.C. Leyendecker and other artists as well as 65 Rockwell paintings, has been appraised at more than $100 million.
