Three-story hotel-type building with partial fourth story and basement. Workers on the railway that runs behind the building spent the night there. Not much inside as the structure is being prepped for demolition. It is surrounded by orange fencing and windows are covered with plastic sheets. Construction workers are around at times but it doesn't appear as if they're in too big of a hurry.

Built in 1920, the Pennsylvania Railroad YMCA provided a place to stay for workers on the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago railway. It was later vacated by the railway and used as a junkyard for many years. During this time, a few old cars sat around the building but they are gone now. Around 2014, the city of Canton took over the building and it is now being prepped for demolition.
