  • Bakery Square 2.0 Development
    BAKERY SQUARE 2.0 DEVELOPMENT (FORMER REIZENSTEIN SCHOOL) FAST FACTS TIMELINE LOCATION: Pittsburgh, PA 1975: Reizenstein School built. SIZE: 12 acres 2006: Reizenstein Middle School closes. 2007: Renovations begin. FEATURES: Proximity to Downtown 2008: Barack Obama International OWNER: Walnut Capital Studies Academy opens. 2013: Walnut Capital Purchases the INTENDED USE: Office Space, Residential property from the City of PAST USE: Middle/High School Pittsburgh. CONTAMINANTS : Asbestos 2013: Demolition begins onsite. TOTAL PREDICTED COST: $120 million HISTORY / SITE CONTROL The site is located on Penn Ave. near Fifth Ave. in Pittsburgh, PA. Historic maps of the site reveal that the parcel was home to a Baptist church circa 1882, Dollar Savings Bank in 1890, and Bauer Brothers & Co. Bakery as late as 1910. The former Florence Reizenstein School was built by the City of Pittsburgh in 1975. The school was named after the late Florence Reizenstein of Pittsburgh, a beloved human rights activist. The facilities were state-of-the-art and positioned at the border Shadyside and East Liberty, poised to attract an integrated student body from a variety of neighborhoods and ethnicities. By 1977, the Reizenstein School had become the largest middle school in the district. This overcrowding, coupled with rumors of discipline problems, deterred many white families from enrolling their children there. According to the Post-Gazette.com, by 1986, the school population was 75% black. Many parents and students reported getting a great education at Reizenstein, but its reputation of poor academics was hard to shake. In 2002, Reizenstein middle school was placed on a list of federal “improvement schools” under President Bush’s “No Child Left Behind Act,” based on its students’ low math and reading scores.

  • TECH’ TOWN: How Technology Is Transforming Our Neighborhoods
    Winter 2011 POSITIVELY PITTSBURGH An Advertising Supplement To The Pittsburgh Business Times ‘TECH’ TOWN: How Technology is Transforming our Neighborhoods Dave Trumbore, BioSafe Lab Technician Photography by John Altdorfer POSITIVELY PITTSBURGH Letter from the MAYOR & URA Over the past 30 years, Pittsburgh has transformed itself from a one industry town to one with a diversified global economy focused on creating next generation products and technologies. Through strong partnerships, strategic investment, and place cre- ation, we have been able to develop the support network necessary to nurture and grow the high tech industry. In 2009, the City, URA and many civic partners, including Pittsburgh Central and Keystone Innovation Zones, Landmarks Community Capital Corporation, Allegheny County, Neighborhood Business Inc., State Senator Wayne Fontana, and the Heinz Luke Ravenstahl, Mayor, City of Pittsburgh Endowments, launched a portfolio of loan products to provide capital to emerging technology companies. These financing tools, like the Pittsburgh Entrepreneur Fund, help tech companies move from formation and commercialization to growth and sustainability. The creation of “place” for these leaders of the new economy has been a purposeful partnership with community, business and government. Last year, the URA and Greater Oakland Keystone Innovation Zone established a fund to help health-science entrepreneurs with early stage business planning and incor- poration. And in December, the Mayor’s Technology Task Force convened for the first time. Composed of education, business and nonprofit leaders, the task force will work together to attract and grow high-tech ventures, and make policy recommen- dations for improving the City’s technology climate. While we have come a long way, we are committed to continue the work needed to grow our neighborhoods, making them places where entrepreneurs and big businesses alike can find success.

  • CITY of PITTSBURGH “America’S Most Livable City”
    CITY OF PITTSBURGH “America’s Most Livable City” Office of Mayor Luke Ravenstahl January 30, 2012 TO: [email protected] Mr. Azam Khan Deputy Chief of Staff U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Mail Stop: Office of Under Secretary and Director RE: Request for Comments on Additional USPTO Satellite Offices for the Nationwide Workforce Program – Federal Register Docket No. PTO‐C‐2011‐0066 Dear Mr. Khan, It is with great excitement that I write to you on behalf of the City of Pittsburgh to convey our interest in establishing a USPTO Satellite Office. Through the collaborative PowerUp Pittsburgh initiative, I am pleased to provide comment on Additional United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) offices for the Nationwide Workforce Program as requested in the Federal Register/Vol 76, No. 229. PowerUp Pittsburgh is a formal partnership and collaboration of the Pittsburgh region’s business, education and technology‐based economic development organizations unified in an approach to attracting and growing innovation and technology‐driven job growth to Pittsburgh. PowerUp Pittsburgh is based on the White House’s 'Start Up America' model and the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness and is a hallmark of the way business is done in Pittsburgh; through strategic cooperation and innovative partnerships. Pittsburgh will meet and exceed the USPTO’s objectives for establishing satellite offices. As you will see in the statistics provided below, Pittsburgh is well positioned to provide the necessary criteria for the establishment of a USPTO satellite office. Pittsburgh is home to world class research universities with internationally renowned engineering and legal programs.
