Grew up in Follansbee and spent lots of time in downtown Steubenville during the 70's. I can vividly remember standing in front of The Hub to watch the Christmas Parade down market St. and then walking over to Kreegan & Co. to look at the puppets and the trains. I still have family in Steubenville and every time I return I like to hit up Steve's Fish & Chips. You are correct, Camroy, it's the best fish sandwich around.
Steubenville really isn't bad at all. I've been there like 3 or 4 times. It's just a typical, Appalachian city in Ohio. There are cities that are much worse. I'd be more cautious about walking alone in parts of Pittsburgh which is 55 minutes away.
Nah there’s not a lot of cites much worse than that 💩hole even in Ohio Pittsburgh is way better even though it has some really bad parts it has a lot of good parts can’t say the same about Steubenville only a couple parts are good and the overwhelming majority of it is a drg infested cesspool with overwhelming corruption
My dad grew up in Steubenville & I actually have good memories of visiting my grandparents there in the 1960s & 70s. They lived on Logan Street just a few hundred feet from the Ohio River. Dad said the neighborhood was referred to as "the Patch" (i.e. potato patch) when was a kid since most families there were of Irish descent.
Born and raised in the Ville, loved it growing up. We always had something to do. Little League baseball, Friday night football, the dances at the High Shaft, the festivals downtown and the food! I go there just to get Steve's and DiCarlo's. Been going to Cool's all my life and can't forget Capri's.
Been there 21 months from Cleveland. Back and forth, I cry tears of joy when I see that Jefferson County sign on the highway. I love my Steubenville. 💜
Going to see my Italian family there next week I enjoy some parts of downtown, like the bread shop which has now changed hands and the great Maple Sticks at the bakery.
Read quite a lot about Steubenville in the Dean Martin book ‘Living high in the Dirty Business of Dreams’ and always regretted not dropping in to see it when I came out from Australia for my Road Trip around America, now I think .. hmmm maybe it was a good thing.
Your a little late. The town has disappeared somewhat over the years. Allot of the buildings are gone. Our mall is empty. The downtown was so great in the 1970s.
Honestly,Living In Steubenville Isn’t Bad . I Used To Live On Broadway BLVD And Heard Gun Shots From Up The Road So We Moved To The Country / Rural Area Of Ohio And Honestly I Like It Better. it’s more quiet and calm
You are absolutely correct like 100 percent and it's crazy cause I walked around I even walked too school big red from the square an now I live down in ytr and no one here will even dare to walk in stuebenville like
Came from a small town in texas to be with my GF here. 2 years so far. Fairly decent but still I feel like its more of a place for those people who are too old to do anything new.
When is the Greek Festival?? I live in Pittsburgh. First traveled to Steubenville, around April 2020, during the pandemic.... just looking to go for a drive...had never been down route 22. I think it’s been revitalized a bit since this video was made or no? There is a nice coffee shop that seems to anchor the revitalization.
You just missed the Greek Festival. They always have great food. I guess the revitalization is in the eye of the beholder. There is an Apple Festival in Wellsburg Oct 1st. In Wheeling there is a casino, The Highlands is a nice place to shop and eat. Oglebay Park is a great place to visit! In spring thousands of tullips. Coleman's Fish market is good and a few antique shops.
When i worked at steubenville truck center, I would always have to drive through town. I saw some fucked up people from the time i worked there. There was this one women that went up to my window and she asked me for money for drug money, I looked at her and she looked at me like i was crazy. I drove off and she went up to the person behind me and i'm guessing she asked them the same thing she asked me. Can find some weird people in this part of town. BP gas station is the worst part. I knew someone there and the place got robbed. This happen last year. She quit her job after it happen.
@@itsmecamroy i live im massllon, wva is my fav place to visit, but never passed threw steubinville on the way to, or fro? i like old towns, old architecture. have been a urban explorer since i could walk, thanks to my dad.
@@lilfairycupcake I wish you could have seen it thirty years ago. So many buildings torn down or fell down. Sadly WV was just rated by some site as the least fun state. How rude!
@@itsmecamroyim sure there is plenty to see. the greek restaurant w the good gyros is defiantly going to be on the list for lunch. my moms side is from wva. and ive always felt at home there. the people, mountains, hollers, creeks. its all good.
@@lilfairycupcake in WV my favorite place is Oglebay Park in Wheeling. Thousands of tulips in the spring thousands of lights at Christmas. Coleman's fish sandwiches. Wheeling Downs has thousands of slits machines. The Highlands is great for shopping.
It would be nice if you or someone there could record/replay the evening news on youtube. Dont know if thats legal or not or how its would be done, but would be nice for those of us that moved away.
What? I used to traverse and walk ALL those streets back in 80s. Sure, there were some places that were shady but in the day time I walked EVERYWHERE. Is it that bad now? I doubt it.
Kaz Fleszar its a parking lot. As a matter of fact that has been their motto for years. Tearing a historic building down to make way for a new parking lot. Give me a break. A lot of history buried in that town.

Steubenville ain’t that bad just have to be careful on where you go lived here all my life
Everything but the college is disgusting
Been there 21 months from Cleveland. Back and forth, I cry tears of joy when I see that Jefferson County sign on the highway. I love my Steubenville. 💜
I know this was 2 years ago 😂 but what do you love about it?
Going to see my Italian family there next week I enjoy some parts of downtown, like the bread shop which has now changed hands and the great Maple Sticks at the bakery.
Nicholas Johnson the same people own the bread place

That amazes me! I had no ideal it was that bad or dangerous!!!😮😢😮
I’m from Chicago and I Used to Live in Steubenville in The JFK Building.Old folks Run That Town 😂😂😂😂 I Came Back Home

Yorgos, Hu Nan, Naples, Froelich's Classic Corner, Pee Dee's, Enzo's and more
If you want a good FISH SANDWICH, the best inland FISH RESTAURANT in the USA is COLEMANS in Wheeling, WVa.
One lane into town, three lanes out of town.

Manhattan Subdivision... Grew-Up on Oregon Avenue during the 80's... the BEST Neighborhood of Steubenville during that Decade

I remember Bruno’s!

At least we have Pittsburgh.
How're you enjoying the northern weather? These hot days are killing me - moved into Steubenville within the last year
Only place better than Steve's Fish and Chips was Cool's.
And yes, Steubenville has been a shit show since about '87 .. Maybe '88.
And Joe's sausage shop
That's a great story!
1:45 I work in that building on the left. I’m not a lawyer I’m just a janitor lmao
Gotta love cruisin Steuby
University reviving the whole area...

Is Steubenville Ohio Dead Yet?
Well Yes But Actually No
Just another upholstered sewer.😂
Big red football team full of secrets
Steubenville is still much better than East Liverpool and Martins Ferry in OH or Weirton and Wheeling in WV.
It's worlds better than a place like Coshocton.
@@OrangeElixirNo it’s way worse than Coshocton which is saying ALOT

Do you know what happened to the rape victim ? Is she still living there?
Oh wait she wasn't from there . I forgot lol. But I was just wondering if u know what she's up to now.
I have no idea. I didn't know the person.

Steve's Fish and Chips? Population has been shrinking since 1940.
looks like a beautiful city
Spencer Munson lol no it's not. I've lived here all my life. It's a hell hole
It used to be but now it’s nothing but gangland and drug addicts
It is beautiful. Trump is getting steel coal and gas back. Booming. Just needs time
WAS
@@wayneygasparro5403 beautiful really you must be blind. Get real don't sugar coat that shit town.
Yuck 🤢
Yeah but we have had a sheriff in that's hard on crime and good for the community so on and so forth
what is this building at 1.32?
Which one?
On left the tallest building in Steubenville. The Steubenville Bank and Trust Building standing at 401 Market Street. 12 floors 146 ft built in 1922.
@@myownidenity4955 thank you sir
@@myownidenity4955 What's the building at 1.19 on the right?
@@dwashington3624 I think it's called Jefferson County Commissioners Tower. My lawyer and the health department are in that building
Stubenville, a dead town. Nothing more. Everyone moved out 5-10 years ago.
Everyone ?? So if I drive into Stubenville I won't see 1 fn person ?? Wow, I'm going to check it out now !
I lived there for a couple year iam from saint clairsville
It would be nice if you or someone there could record/replay the evening news on youtube. Dont know if thats legal or not or how its would be done, but would be nice for those of us that moved away.
Channel 9 WTOV and the newspaper Herald Star both are on the web.

Beefaroni it is sadly that bad now
Absolutely. Only in Steubenville will a toothless hooker ask to "shluck your clock" while gunshots echo behind tou.
Downtown isnt so bad but the hilltop is a little risky
Half the damn town is criminals
Steubenville big red has the best high school sports teams
Michael Goodwin and Indian creek has the best band
True
@@approachinglimits you capping 😂😂
Michael Goodwin you mean the big red rapists ?!?!
Cap 🧢 at its Finest
I wanted to go and see dean martins birth place but after reading the comments I don't think ill bother now .

Although I'm 7 out from the time of this video
Hopeless. The problem isn’t Steubenville it’s Jefferson County !
it must have been bad .
Don't bother making this place look good. I saw a video of Anonymous going after this place first.
Nini x/ bloody marys hometown.

Rest in peace, josh miles

I’m frm Chicago N Steubenville is nothing
Steubenville's Nickname is LITTLE CHICAGO
Genius, slamming your hometown won't make it appealing for any person. Every town has gone through some sort of economic crisis.
