  • Foreclosure in South Pittsburgh's Hilltop and Effective Responses
    Foreclosure in South Pittsburgh’s Hilltop and Effective Responses July, 2011 For the Hilltop Alliance Program in Urban and Regional Analysis University Center for Social and Urban Research University of Pittsburgh 121 University Place Pittsburgh, PA 15260 Executive Summary This report presents a picture of foreclosure activity in South Pittsburgh’s Hilltop communities and documents effective practices that can prevent foreclosure and combat foreclosure-related blight. The report was developed for the Hilltop Alliance, a collaborative community organization working to unite neighborhood-based organizations and support their efforts, creating a common vision and voice for the Hilltop, and preserving and building community assets. Key Findings On average, 1.4 percent of all Hilltop residential properties had a foreclosure filing each year between 2006 and 2010 compared to 1.0 percent of properties in the City of Pittsburgh. 69 percent of all properties with a 2010 foreclosure filing in the Hilltop area were purchased after the year 2000. About half all Hilltop properties have been sold since 2000. 35 percent of Hilltop properties in foreclosure in 2010 were occupied by a homeowner with an Allegheny County homestead property tax exemption. Because not all eligible homeowners file for their homestead exemption, an expansive definition of homeownership developed using property assessment data suggests that over 80% of 2010 foreclosures affected homeowners. Wells Fargo was involved in the largest number of foreclosure filings on Hilltop properties in 2009 and 2010, accounting for 13.4 percent of total filings. Over the same period, 68 percent of all foreclosures were filed by just ten lenders. Only one of these ten lenders was based in Pittsburgh.

  • Littleboroughs— Nestled in the First and Second Range of Hills South of Pittsburgh Beltzhoover and Allentown
    REMINISCENCES OF BELTZHOOVER AND ALLENTOWN Two Old-Time Western Pennsylvania Boroughs* C. A. Weslager is known, still less has been published, and the meager in- formation available is gradually disappearing about the two Littleboroughs— nestled in the first and second range of hills south of Pittsburgh Beltzhoover and Allentown. Allentown, the older of the two, was incorporated in 1869 and annexed to Pittsburgh in 1874. Beltzhoover, incorporated in 1875, became part of the city in 1898. Their former borough names are still used although they no longer have political significance. Ifyou hail a cab in downtown Pittsburgh and ask the driver to take you to Beltz- hoover or Allentown,he won't remind you that your destination should properly be referred to as the Eighteenth Ward. He will whisk you across the Smithfield Street Bridge, left on West Carson Street, and up cobbled Brownsville Avenue, one of the city's oldest and steepest streets, now called new Arlington Avenue. At the top of the hillyou will intersect Warrington Avenue, the main street of the two former boroughs. Here the driver probably will throw on his brakes and ask for your specific destination. If you say Millbridge Street (although there was never a mill or bridge to warrant the name), he willhave you there in a jiffy.But ifyou were to direct him to Maple Street, for example, the former name of Millbridge, he would look at you with a blank expression. No street exists today with that name. Maple Street never was an avenue lined with maples. Itderived Mr. Weslager received an Award of Merit from the American Association for State and Local History for his contributions to the history of the Delaware Valley region and the State of—Delaware.

  • RCO Public Statement
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Felicity Williams May 18, 2019 412.765.1820, [email protected] Citywide Public Statement Registered Community Organization Legislation In 2017, the Department of City Planning completed a two-year community engagement process which led to the introduction of a city-wide ordinance that establishes requirements and benefits for community organizations. The stated purpose of the Ordinance is to “obtain informed and inclusive participation from as many neighborhood stakeholders as possible.” Despite serious concerns expressed by community organizations effected by the Ordinance, the City passed §178E titled “Registered Community Organizations” in September 2018. This vote amended the Pittsburgh Code Title One: Administrative, Article IX: Boards, Commissions and Authorities, thereby creating a Registered Community Organization (“RCO”) status. Unfortunately, many community concerns submitted to City Planning have remained largely unaddressed. In addition, during the legislative process even more stringent requirements were introduced and approved without any community input. It is the position of the undersigned organizations that the RCO ordinance, in its current form, does not serve its intended purpose, but instead may limit the voices of community organizations and residents of the City of Pittsburgh. On November 14, 2018 the Hill CDC issued a letter to City Council and the Mayor’s Office expressing disappointment, outlining concerns, and inviting elected officials to attend a Citywide Discussion on the RCO Ordinance. That meeting was held on November 19, 2018 at Arnold’s Tea on the North Side. Approximately 40 community representatives and residents attended. Neighborhoods including Manchester, Homewood, East Liberty, Beltzhoover, Carrick, the Hill District, California-Kirkbride, Fineview, Perry Hilltop, Mt.

  • Pittsburgh's Gateway Communities
    Pittsburgh’s Gateway Communities Center for Economic Development Carnegie Mellon University Center for Economic Development 4516 Henry Street UTDC Suite 208 Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Phone: 412.268.9880 Fax: 412.268.9828 November 2003 www.smartpolicy.org Smart Policy for Innovative Regions 1 Pittsburgh’s Gateway Communities by Lena Andrews Pittsburgh has not been a destination for international immigration into the United States. Out of the 50 largest metropolitan areas, Pittsburgh has a lower share of foreign residents than all cities except for Cincinnati. For a region that is losing people, in a time when much population growth is fueled by international immigration, we must make Pittsburgh a destination. It is possible for Midwestern cities to attract foreign immigration; Cleveland, Minneapolis, and St. Louis are similar to Pittsburgh in many ways but they have larger foreign communities. The dominant pattern of foreign immigration is the clustering of ethnic groups around certain neighborhoods. People tend to move to places where they feel comfortable. Certain communities serve as gateways, welcoming new migrants into a city. The existence and operation of these gateway communities can be a critical factor in making the city a destination for immigration. This report identifies Pittsburgh’s 1 gateway communities for several groups of immigrants. 1 This report focuses on the city of Pittsburgh because it accounts for 30% of the region’s foreign population compared to 14% of the total regional population. Nine of the ten census tracts in the metropolitan area with the largest foreign populations are located in the city of Pittsburgh. Future reports will examine foreign communities throughout the metropolitan area.
