Pittsburgh North Shore is a master plan for an urban, mixed-use neighborhood between two of Pittsburgh’s professional sports venues, Heinz Field and PNC park. Anchored at the confluence of the Allegheny and Ohio Rivers, the vibrant new development plan replaces former parking fields adjacent to downtown Pittsburgh.
Connections are made from across-the-river views designed by building, street, and public space arrangement. Due to the importance of movement within a successful urban area, the pedestrian scale is manipulated and varied through streets, public spaces, and landscape design. Retail, commercial, and residential uses are vertically-integrated on a block-by-block basis to create an exciting and well-connected district.
