This development is especially meaningful as it stands as Western Pennsylvania’s first LGBTQ+ friendly affordable senior housing community, creating a space where every resident is safe, welcomed, valued, and treated with dignity.

Today Pittsburgh stands united in grief and solidarity as we remember the victims, the survivors and all those impacted by the antisemitic violence that shook our city seven years ago.

Today’s street naming honors Gus Kalaris, who brought joy, tradition & community to Pittsburgh’s North Side. For 50+ years, Gus & Yia Yia’s orange cart was a summer staple. His legacy lives on in every smile, story & stroll down West Ohio Street. #ThankYouGus

Big news for Pittsburgh workers! 💼💪 Thanks to unanimous support from City Council, we’ve strengthened our Paid Sick Leave Act—so employees can now earn time off faster and accrue more of it. Together, we’re building a Pittsburgh where every worker is supported✊
