USS Youngstown (CL-94) was to have been a United States Navy Cleveland-class light cruiser. She was laid down on 4 September 1944 at William Cramp & Sons Shipbuilding Company, Philadelphia; but because of the end of hostilities in the Pacific, the contract for her construction was canceled on 12 August 1945, when the ship had been 54.1 percent completed. On 21 January 1946, the Navy approved cancellation of the contract and disposition of the ship, and the unfinished ship was subsequently scrapped on the ways.^[1]

She was to be named after Youngstown, Ohio, a city in Northeast Ohio.
