Revitalization in one of Atlanta’s oldest neighborhoods
Situated in southwest Atlanta, Pittsburgh was named after the Pennsylvania city because the rail yards produced smoke reminiscent of the factory smog in the northern city. Located 2 miles from downtown, this historically Black community is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Atlanta and appears on the National Register of Historic Places. Pittsburgh has an active neighborhood association that works to uplift the community and preserve its history. The area retains some of its earliest buildings, though there has been recent revitalization, which includes new developments like Pittsburgh Yards. With existing amenities like Pittman Park and recent developments connecting the neighborhood to the BeltLine, Pittsburgh is an evolving community that maintains its historical roots.
Contemporary traditional styled homes are being built throughout Pittsburgh.
