That’s the message that is being communicatedI at virtually every presentation or conference fo- cused on the future of transpor- tation. Advances in technology and unexpected shifts in societal expectations have changed a conversation about highways and transit from systems to individual mobility almost overnight. As that conversation has evolved, so has the future of commercial real estate development. Pittsburgh has changed. It may seem like the last five years have been something of a civic victory lap, celebrating a remarkable revi- talization of a regional economy. That renewed regional vitality was a rising tide that lifted the fortunes of commercial real estate. You could make an effective argument that the turning point in this transforma- tion occurred when the attitude of Pittsburgh’s people changed. Coincidence or not, real economic progress began after the “Imagine Pittsburgh” campaign kicked off in 2008. That progress gave leaders the room to dream and plan about what Pittsburgh should be like in 2030. One of the key components of a future plan is transportation. www.developingpittsburgh.com 7 FEATURE New Technology He points out that Uber’s share of the ridership market is still muted Stan Caldwell calls what is going by the company’s relative newness on in transportation and mobility to the market.

  • 2019 State of Downtown Pittsburgh
    20 STATE OF DOWNTOWN PITTSBURGH19 TABLE OF CONTENTS For the past eight years, the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership has been pleased to produce the State of Downtown Pittsburgh Report. This annual compilation and data analysis allows us to benchmark our progress, both year over year and in comparison to peer cities. In this year’s report, several significant trends came to light helping us identify unmet needs and better understand opportunities for developing programs and initiatives in direct response to those challenges. Although improvements to the built environment are evident in nearly every corridor of the Golden Triangle, significant resources are also being channeled into office property interiors to meet the demands of 21st century companies and attract a talented workforce to Pittsburgh’s urban core. More than $300M has been invested in Downtown’s commercial office stock over the 4 ACCOLADES AND BY THE NUMBERS last five years – a successful strategy drawing new tenants to Downtown and ensuring that our iconic buildings will continue to accommodate expanding businesses and emerging start-ups. OFFICE, EMPLOYMENT AND EDUCATION Downtown experienced a 31% growth in residential population over the last ten years, a trend that will continue with the opening 6 of hundreds of new units over the next couple of years. Businesses, from small boutiques to Fortune 500 companies, continued to invest in the Golden Triangle in 2018 while Downtown welcomed a record number of visitors and new residents. HOUSING AND POPULATION 12 Development in Downtown is evolving and all of these investments combine to drive the economic vitality of the city, making Downtown’s thriving renaissance even more robust.

  • A Golden Triangle
    2 DOWNTOWN: A GOlDeN TriANGle © 2009 University of Pittsburgh Press. All rights reserved. 41 fig. 2.1 The Golden Triangle f the various claims about who first likened downtown Pittsburgh to a Golden Triangle, one has primacy. After the Great Fire of 1845 ravaged the city’s core, Mayor William Howard is said to have O declared, “We shall make of this triangle of blackened ruins a golden triangle whose fame will endure as a priceless heritage.” The Golden Triangle nickname was already well established locally by 1914, when an article in the Saturday Evening Post gave it national publicity. The nickname was a good fit because the 255 acres bounded by Grant Street and the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers must count among the most gilded in the United States, having generated immense wealth. The Triangle constitutes a city in itself, with retail strips on Wood and Smithfield streets and Forbes and Fifth avenues, a government center on Grant, two churches and the Duquesne Club on Sixth Avenue, and extensive cultural facilities set among the cast-iron fronts and loft buildings on Penn and Liberty avenues. The compactness of the Golden Triangle is a marvel in its own right: no two of its points are more than a fifteen-minute walk apart. The subway route from Grant Street to Gateway Center is so tiny that its entire length is shorter than the subway platform beneath Times Square in New York. © 2009 University of Pittsburgh Press. All rights reserved. Being so small, downtown Pittsburgh is the preserve of pedestrians. In winter, they tend to stay indoors by using the subway and the tunnels, atri- ums, and interior streets of the new buildings.
