Groundbreaking Open House kick starts renovation of the Market Block Building, Warren, Ohio

On Monday July 25, 2011, The Chesler Group and The Raymond John Wean Foundation broke ground and announced the kickoff of the Market Block Building renovation located at 147 West Market Street. Warren Mayor O’Brien and many other city officials were present for the open house where Gordon B. Wean, Chairman of the foundation, Jeffery M. Glebecki, President of foundation, and Michael Chesler, President of The Chesler Group spoke of the future of the Market Block Building. Formerly the Trumbull County Work Opportunity Center, the future headquarters of The Raymond John Wean Foundation will not only hold the offices of the foundation but also a community meeting room and offices for emerging non-profit organizations. The building will be restored to its post-Civil War Era structure and open to the community by this time next year.
