Description

The Smart 2 project in downtown Youngstown involved removing or relocating utilities, including work on the Realty Tower building. The city paid contractor GreenHeart $140,133 for this work. However, there was a lack of communication between the City of Youngstown, GreenHeart, the Realty Tower building owners, and Enbridge Gas Ohio regarding the status of the gas lines, which led to a gas explosion when third-party workers cut into an active gas line under the sidewalk of the Realty Building.
