    CONNECTING THE LOOP THREE RIVERS PARK Defining Strategies for Implementation Presented by the Riverlife Task Force Pittsburgh May 2003 CONNECTING THE LOOP THREE RIVERS PARK Defining Strategies for Implementation n August 2002, Mayor Tom Murphy issued a challenge to the Riverlife Task TABLE OF CONTENTS Force: How can we link Pittsburgh’s three rivers with a continuous system of BACKGROUND 3 trails and riverfront parkland for people of all ages? Which trails are currently ELEMENTS OF THE LOOP 4 TRAIL SEGMENT ANALYSIS 7 connected? Which are not? How do we establish connections that do not yet APPENDIX 87 exist? What exciting destinations can we create along the shoreline? I. PROJECT SUMMARY 88 I II. ANTICIPATED PROBABLE COSTS 94 After walking the entire shoreline within the bounds of Three Rivers Park, we hired III. EXCERPTS FROM RIVERLIFE 96 a team of architects, landscape architects and civil engineers to present options DESIGN GUIDELINES and propose solutions for riverfront trails, bridge connections and water landings. Connecting the Loop presents a range of ways to establish a continuous trail system with acquisition, design and construction that can be phased over the next decade. We offer this as a resource for property owners, planners, developers, public agencies and non-profit organizations, and we urge them to seize moments of opportunity to undertake projects, large and small. For the Riverlife Task Force, the plan will also serve as a guide as we work with public and private stakeholders to develop long and short-term priorities. We are proud to present Connecting the Loop and we invite you to work with us to return Pittsburgh’s greatest asset to the public — its rivers and miles of shoreline.

    Guiding Change in the Strip Capstone Seminar in Economic Development, Policy and Planning Graduate School of Public and International Affairs (GSPIA) University of Pittsburgh December 2002 GUIDING CHANGE IN THE STRIP University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public and International Affairs Capstone Seminar Fall 2002 Contributing Authors: Trey Barbour Sherri Barrier Carter Bova Michael Carrigan Renee Cox Jeremy Fine Lindsay Green Jessica Hatherill Kelly Hoffman Starry Kennedy Deb Langer Beth McCall Beth McDowell Jamie Van Epps Instructor: Professor Sabina Deitrick i ii MAJOR FINDINGS This report highlights the ongoing nature of the economic, social and environmental issues in the Strip District and presents specific recommendations for Neighbors in the Strip (NITS) and policy makers to alleviate problems hindering community development. By offering a multitude of options for decision-makers, the report can serve as a tool for guiding change in the Strip District. Following is a summary of the major findings presented in Guiding Change in the Strip: • The Strip has a small residential population. As of 2000, the population was on 266 residents. Of these residents, there is a significant income gap: There are no residents earning between $25,000 and $35,000 annually. In other words, there are a limited amount of middle-income residents. Furthermore, nearly three-quarters of the 58 families living in the Strip earned less than $25,000 in 1999. These figures represent a segment of the residential population with limited voice in the development of the Strip. There is an opportunity for NITS, in collaboration with the City of Pittsburgh, to increase the presence of these residents in the future of the Strip.

Maxine Bruhns The dignity of a great hall bearing tributes to creative men, ancient clans, edu- cation, and the nobility of freedom is felt in the Scottish Nationality Room. The oak doors are adapted from the entrance to Rowallan Castle in Ayrshire. Above the doors and cabinet are lines lauding freedom from The Brus by John Barbour . On either side of the sandstone fireplace are matching kists, or chests. A portrait of Scotland’s immortal poet, Robert Burns, dominates above the mantel. Above the portrait is the cross of St. Andrew, Scotland’s patron saint. Bronze figures representing 13th– and 14th-century patriots William Wallace and Robert the Bruce stand on the mantel near an arrangement of dried heather. The blackboard trim bears a proverb found over a door in 1576: “Gif Ye did as ye should Ye might haif as Ye would.” Names of famous Scots are carved on blackboard panels and above the mantel. Student chairs are patterned after one owned by John Knox. An aumbry, or wall closet, pro- vided the inspiration for the display cabinet.
