The Physical and Cultural Development of Pittsburgh's Highland
1 Nathaniel Mark Johns Hopkins University Building a Community: The Physical and Cultural Development of Pittsburgh’s Highland Park Neighborhood, 1778-1900 INTRODUCTION The 22nd census (2000) showed for the first time that the majority of Americans now live in the suburbs.1 This was just the latest of many milestones in the history of the American suburbs. Since the United States emerged as an industrial power, suburbs have steadily grown from small upper-class rural retreats into the most prominent form of American communities. Yet, the dominance of suburbs in American society was not an inevitable outcome of industrialization, nor was it even clear before the latter half of the 19th century that the middle and upper classes would prefer to live in peripheral areas over the inner-city. Many historians and sociologists have attempted to explain why the first suburbs developed in the late 19th century. Sam Bass Warner, in his 1962 book, Streetcar Suburbs was the first to analyze the intricate process of early suburban development. In Streetcar Suburbs, Warner describes how Boston from 1850 to 1 Frank Hobbs and Nicole Stoops, U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000 Special Reports, Series CENSR-4, Demographic Trends in the 20th Century (Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, 2002), 33. 2 1900 transformed from a walking city to a modern metropolis. In 1850, Boston was made up of communities within 2 miles of the Central Business District (CDB) where wealthy merchants and the working class lived in close quarters. In the next fifty years, Boston evolved into a “two-part” city consisting of middle class commuter suburbs on the periphery of the city, and working class neighborhoods surrounding a CBD devoted almost entirely to office space and production.

[laura motchalov, on the view] “I love big cities. I like looking at the lights. I like the fall here— it’s mild, it’s colorful. And I’m 90 seconds from work.” With degrees from the Eastman School of Music and the Cleveland Institute of Music, Laura Motchalov became the youngest member of the world-renowned Pittsburgh Symphony in the summer of 2003, embarking on a frenetic schedule of touring and performance that took her to Europe three times in the first year.

Ramed by a Sleek Glass Elevator Descending from Pittsburgh's Theater Square Parking Tower, the Scene Below Exudes Artsy Sophi
12 12 building TPittsburgh’s Cultural RUST Trust, manager of a downtown district that houses $200 million worth of philanthropic dreams, has had immeasurable success as an artistic presenter. Now, as it blows out the candles on its 25th birthday, there is a recounting of its history as an economic developer and one inevitable question: What now? by Christine H. O’Toole photography by Joshua Franzos ramed by a sleek glass elevator descending from Pittsburgh’s Theater Square parking tower, the scene below exudes artsy sophistication. The linden trees on Katz Plaza have leafed out, shading the Faudience at a late-afternoon jazz concert. A calming gurgle of water trickles down a looming Louise Bourgeois sculpture. An electronic signboard teases for the Broadway-birthed “Legally Blonde,” playing at the Benedum Center, a landmark grand theater. A block past Heinz Hall, the home of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, aproned waiters sweep the sidewalks in front of storefront bistros. H.J. “Jack” Heinz II, described as a man of “stratospheric elegance” by Tony O’Reilly, his successor in heading the legendary H.J. Heinz Co., would relish every aspect of the neighborhood now known as the Cultural District. He would love its Euro-style panache, but he also would appreciate it as the worthy product of a vision he conceived in the late 1960s and turned into reality through his philanthropic leadership at The Heinz Endowments. A drab outdoor parking lot was reborn in 1999 as Agnes R. Katz Plaza in Pittsburgh’s downtown Cultural District. Katz was the matriarch of the family that had majority ownership in Papercraft Corp.
