Get to Know Pittsburgh Neighborhoods

If you’ve been following this newsletter for a while, you know that Wednesdays are my favorite. Each week, I highlight places to eat, things to do, where to shop, and tidbits of history in different neighborhoods. Each edition is a love note to all of the unique and storied communities that make this city shine.

• Up the city’s fifth steepest street in Troy Hill 🐖
• Along the developing “restaurant row” in Deutschtown 🍽️
• To the scenic peak on Mount Washington 👀

• To H.J. Heinz’s original home, the little river town of Sharpsburg(which is getting a huge riverfront development) 🌊
