  • 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.

  • 1.) What Was the Original Name of the Pittsburgh Steelers? B. the Pirates
    1.) What was the original name of the Pittsburgh Steelers? B. The Pirates The Pittsburgh football franchise was founded by Art Rooney on July 7, 1933. When he chose the name for his team, he followed the customary practice around the National Football League of naming the football team the same as the baseball team if there was already a baseball team established in the city. So the professional football team was originally called the Pittsburgh Pirates. 2.) How many Pittsburgh Steelers have had their picture on a Wheaties Box? C. 13 Since Wheaties boxes have started featuring professional athletes and other famous people, 13 Steelers have had their pictures on the box. These players are Kevin Greene, Greg Lloyd, Neil O'Donnell, Yancey Thigpen, Bam Morris, Franco Harris, Joe Greene, Terry Bradshaw, Barry Foster, Merril Hoge, Carnell Lake, Bobby Layne, and Rod Woodson. 3.)

  • 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.
