Quick progress being made on reconstruction of historic Elyria mansion
Six decades after its demolition, the Reefy Mansion is once again rising to tower over the rest of the historic homes in downtown Elyria. Crews are hard at work erecting a smaller reconstruction of the historic mansion that once stood on Third Street and served as Elyria’s public library for nearly 30 years, and the framing of the building has quickly risen to two of its eventual three stories.

More Kent State students seeking to build a future in this major
Kent State University is starting this fall with its largest incoming class of first-year, full-time architecture students in 25 years. The university's College of Architecture and Environmental Design has more than 175 students coming into the college this fall, according to Kent State officials. This influx of students means that architecture is now the fourth-largest major among the university's 5,004 incoming first-year students. The growth in first-year architecture students comes as Kent State's overall enrollment declined about 5.2% across its eight-campus system compared to last year. Total enrollment dropped from 33,319 last fall to 31,581 this year. Mark Mistur, dean of Kent State's College of Architecture and Environmental Design , said that the architecture industry was seeing growth in general, particularly in southern states. The Cleveland area has seen 5% growth for the field. However, North Carolina is seeing 22% growth, and other states such as Florida and Arizona also have high demand. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics , the job growth outlook for architects through 2035 is about 4%, or about average. The median pay in 2025 was $99,280 a year, or $47.73 an hour. Mistur said that when he started as dean with Kent State
