    Strategy Guide No. 1 Sharing New Methods˙ to IMPACT Pittsburgh’s Neighborhoods innovative project report: THE ONE NORTHSIDE COMMUNITY PLAN Our mission is to support the people, organizations and partnerships committed to creating and maintaining thriving neighborhoods. We believe that Pittsburgh’s future is built upon strong neighborhoods and the good work happening on the ground. It is integral to our role as an advocate, collaborator and convener to lift up exemplary projects and share best practices in ways that advance better engagement and community-led decisions and ensure a better understanding of the processes that lead to success and positive impact on our neighborhoods. We share this story with you to inspire action and celebrate progress, and most importantly, to empower leaders and residents in other communities to actively ˙ shape the future of their neighborhoods. — Presley L. Gillespie President, Neighborhood Allies Neighborhood Strategy Guide || 1 innovative project report: From concept to consensus Upwards of 600 people braved the chill of an early December night in Pittsburgh last year to celebrate in the warmth inside Heinz Field, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Their reason for celebration had nothing to do with the exploits of the city’s beloved professional football team. A community plan was being unveiled for improving the quality of life in the city’s Northside neighborhoods around the stadium that the voices of several thousand residents and community stakeholders had shaped. And hopes were high that improvements in infrastructure, schools, employment and lives would be more broadly and quickly realized, as they had in other city neighborhoods where resources and revitalization were attracting investment and people.

  • Nathan Hart, AIA Oakland Square Historic District, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
    Nathan Hart, AIA Oakland Square Historic District, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania In 2004, I nominated my neighborhood of Oakland Square as a City of Pittsburgh historic district. My neighborhood faced, and continues to face, a demographic challenge. Many of the homeowners in the neighborhood are older. Many houses in Oakland have passed hands from older residents to absentee landlords. We feared that in a few years, if more young homeowners and families were not attracted to our neighborhood, the Oakland Square neighborhood could reach a tipping point at which poorly managed and maintained student housing would quickly erode property values and quality of life and drive out the base of home ownership that we currently enjoy. The nomination was contentious. On one hand, folks were concerned that a new layer of bureaucracy would govern what they could do to the exterior of their homes. Some older residents had significantly altered their houses and were concerned that they would be forced to spend more money than they could afford to restore their homes back to what they looked like in 1890. Several Oakland landlords fed on this fear with a misinformation campaign aimed at our Italian immigrant population. Other neighbors saw it as a way to maintain quality, reinvestment, and homeownership in the neighborhood. Just as a poorly maintained or unattractive building can make an entire street less attractive, a charming, well maintained building is an asset for its neighbors. Historic districts help promote a consistently high quality of materials, details, and styles throughout a neighborhood so that the district is a collection of charming, well maintained buildings.

As a hub for interdisciplinary research and collaboration, UCSUR promotes a research agenda focused on the social, economic and health issues most relevant to our society. UCSUR maintains a permanent research infrastructure available to faculty and the community with the capacity to: (1) conduct all types of survey research, including complex web surveys; (2) carry out regional econometric modeling; (3) analyze qualitative data using state‐of‐the‐art computer methods, including web‐based studies; (4) obtain, format, and analyze spatial data; (5) acquire, manage, and analyze large secondary and administrative data sets including Census data; and (6) design and carry out descriptive, evaluation, and intervention studies.

The long‐term goals of UCSUR fall into three broad domains: (1) provide state‐of‐the‐art research and support services for investigators interested in interdisciplinary research in the behavioral, social, and clinical sciences; (2) develop nationally recognized research programs within the Center in a few selected areas; and (3) support the teaching mission of the University through graduate student, post‐ doctoral, and junior faculty mentoring, teaching courses on research methods in the social sciences, and providing research internships to undergraduate and graduate students.

  • The Manchester Neighborhood Plan
    The Manchester Neighborhood Plan Introduction & Methodology In the summer of 2009, the Manchester Citizens Corporation (MCC) Board of Directors partnered with Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation (PHLF) to commission a neighborhood planning process. The decision to undertake a planning process reflected a number of issues including the recognition that MCC’s existing planning documents were out of date with respect to reflecting the existing conditions in the neighborhood, and the desire to respond to increasing demolitions in Manchester in a proactive manner. MCC felt that the elements of a neighborhood wide strategy were embodied in the organization’s current development projects, but needed to be enhanced and articulated as part of a neighborhood planning process. MCC and PHLF desired to create a plan that is a dynamic rather than a static document. As a result, the planning process focused on establishing strategic principles and guidelines that would not change, even as the condition of individual parcels in the neighborhood changed. Although the Plan includes some parcel-specific recommendations, the plan is designed to focus more on overarching principles and guidelines. The Plan’s focus is on vacant and abandoned property. This is a critical issue as identified by Manchester residents and it is supported by data that indicate Manchester has a significant number of vacant properties. Vacant property poses a threat to public safety and the integrity of Manchester’s historic district. Dealing with the issue of vacant property in a systematic and well thought out manner is an objective of this Plan. The goals of this Plan relate to improving the physical and market conditions in the Manchester.
