Description

To many who have yet to recently visit Pittsburgh, an image of a dirty, smoky, lightless city still seems to come to the forefront of the unknowing visitor's imagination. Today, nothing could be further from the truth.True, up through the 1950's, the Pittsburgh region and "Big Steel" were synonymous. Skies were often black at noon; soiled from the refuse of coke and steel production along the banks of the 'burgh's 3 mighty rivers.Yet, in the 1950's and 60's, due to stringent new air pollution laws, along with an aggressive development campaign, the region began its first stage of its ongoing metamorphosis. Known as Renaissance I, green space and shiny skyscrapers grew out of the ashes of rails yards and warehouses.
