  • 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.

The study analyzed the existing tourism attractions of the region and then identified gaps and opportunities in Saginaw County, Bay County and Midland County. Based on this analysis, HSP provided specific recommendations for each county to drive hotel room nights, fill gaps in the leisure calendar, and complement the existing assets of the region. Attached is our report. This deliverable has been prepared under the following general assumptions and limiting conditions: § The findings presented herein reflect analysis of primary and secondary sources of information that are assumed to be correct. HSP utilized sources deemed to be reliable, but cannot guarantee their accuracy. § No responsibility is taken for changes in market conditions after the date of this report and no obligation is assumed to revise this report to reflect events or conditions occurring after the date of this report. § HSP has no control over construction costs or timing of construction and opening of any recommended projects. § Macroeconomic events affecting travel and the economy cannot be predicted and may impact the development and performance of any recommended projects. § We have enjoyed serving you on this engagement and look forward to providing you with continuing service.

  • Pittsburgh Baseball Lesson
    Sept. 2, 2001--- PITTSBURGH, Pa.--The national pastime is blessed with many beautiful new baseball stadiums, but none fit into the pastiche of community as well as PNC Park at North Shore in downtown Pittsburgh. The ballpark is muscled between a regentrified warehouse district and the Allegheny River, an appropriate location for a working-class town where five o'clock shadows are 24/7. It's like having a shot glass next to a beer. The Roberto Clemente Bridge rainbows the river. The former Sixth Street bridge was renamed in honor of one of the Pittsburgh Pirates' most beloved players. Clemente perished in a Dec. 31, 1972, plane crash while leading the Puerto Rican relief effort for earthquake-torn Nicaragua. He was 38. Sometimes Clemente would complain about his aches and pains. I can still see him twitching his neck while going to work in a bitter September wind. But he always got the job done with passion and pride. That's Pittsburgh. The Clemente bridge is closed to vehicles during game days, allowing pedestrians to approach the park with anticipation in each step--just as Clemente used to come to the plate against the Cubs. The right-field wall at PNC is known as "The Clemente Wall." It is exactly 21 feet high in honor of the right fielder's uniform number. One of the best places to watch the game is from the cheapest seat, a $9 ticket in the 300 section of the right field upper deck grandstands. This presents a glorious view of bridges, the north downtown skyline and the ballpark's "toothbrush" light standards.
