You have a point, but have you seen the YouTube vid on new German steel plants. They are pretty clean. But I like the look of old Youngstown better!
By: Candacesp. on 29 Oct 08, 17:31:18
Really good stuff, that work was hard as hell. We all have it so good, we are so spoiled. Those guys are not acting. When they hold their hand up in front of their face, it was because the heat hurt. OSHA could write a 10000 page report on that 15 minute video. Thanks for sharing.

wish Ytown was still like it was in 40's and 50's.

We must show this to our children. Only I can remember the old Youngstown. My kids only see whats happening today there. Show your kids! Wonderful Video.

I cried for a solid hour after watching this, the old hometown sure used to be a nice place to live, thank the tree hugger assholes for making steel to expensive to produce in medium sized communities like youngstown.

Ah! That's my great Uncle Michael Ficocelli conducting the orchestra! I didn't know he worked in the steel mill!
By: martinijodi. on 14 Sep 08, 02:31:48
Neat. My dad went into skilled trades rather than the mills but his dad and brother were there. I too can remember orange skies from a Pointview Street vantage as a young girl.
By: sl95765. on 08 Sep 08, 04:48:12
I grew up in the Ytown area. I regret not having taken the time to tour the mill when my uncle who worked there offered to get me in. This video has helped me to see what my uncle did and what the process was. I remember driving across the Center Street Bridge and seeing the fires burning. For years the skies were orange with smoke from the mill. It took almost 10 years for the blue skies to return but now it's a ghost town. On a side note, Mr. Ficocelli was my music teacher!!

This was awesome.Greatly admire the men ,who helped make the valley what it became.
By: Flackack. on 27 Aug 08, 01:27:15
Fantastic video. I'm from Warren, age 36 so I missed the heyday of the Valley. Unfortunately, it's been nothing but rough times here, my whole life. Think about that.

My Dad was a crane operator at Republic Steel in the Bessemer which was under the South Ave. Bridge. I worked for Republic Steel for 1 year before I went to work for Ohio Bell. Very nice to see this film. Thank you

My father , uncles, and I worked at U.S. Steel Ohio works from 1940 till 1981. Generations of family members had good paying jobs and at one time a great place to live. Thanks for the video it brought back old memories.
By: galfromchitown. on 18 Aug 08, 01:10:46
My grandfather was also a crane operator for 40+ years. He also was from Czechoslovakia, just like one of the men in the film. Very interesting - thanks!

my dad was a crane man in the mill i found this very interesting and sad very mixed emotions .......what happened to our valley!!!!!

My great uncle was head roller at the Ohio WOrks! I still have some of his old pay stubs!
By: tribefan1955. on 30 Jul 08, 21:14:13
The first helper(Mike Hubinsky)is my grandfather. He worked at U.S. Steel for about 50 years without ever missing a day! The hard work must have added length to his days because he lived to 93 years of age.
