  • 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.
