  • 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.

  • Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Hillel Jewish University Center's Design Comes
    REPRINTED FROM THE PAGES OF TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2001 Jewish Center’s Design Comes from Symbolism and Surroundings By Patricia Lowry Post-Gazette Architecture Critic Like many buildings, the Hillel Jewish University Center, which opened last month in Oakland, began as a line on a page. Then another line, and another, until an idea of what the building might look like took shape. As it turned out, the building is visually richer, more complex and original than those initial sketches, and more responsive to its site. The story of how it evolved over three months is told in a 70-page, spiral-bound book that illuminates the architects’ design process from conception to completion. The product is a building that is strongly contextual, highly symbolic and looks to both the past and the future. “We like to add meaning to our work,” said Dan Rothschild of Rothschild Architects in Regent Square. “We needed a vehicle to meet with our clients across the table to talk about meaning. The strength of the sketchbook is the mix of words and pictures.” Rothschild said he began making these 11-by-14-inch books as a student, fi nding it an effective way to communicate with his teachers. His fi rm, founded 13 trust and client knowledge, and psychologically and emotionally years ago, has produced about their future relationship with – to their users and designers, 80 such books for clients.
