When customers walk into the new and improved Ohio City Pizzeria (3223 Lorain Ave.) later this month, they should be prepared for a revamped menu in an old-school Italian setting.

On Friday, July 19, the neighborhood staple will reopen under the ownership of West Side Catholic Center (WSCC), which provides food, clothing, shelter, and other services to those in need. The project is in partnership with Brandon Chrostowski, founder of EDWINS Leadership and Restaurant Institute, where Chrostowski helps formerly-incarcerated adults master the hospitality industry and get a new start.
