At the crossroads of the city and region, the Lower Hill Redevelopment is a mixed-use destination filled with vibrant places to work, live, celebrate and play. The vision calls for a dynamic and seamless development that connects north, south, east and west through activated green spaces, pedestrian friendly retail corridors and multi-modal, urban environments. The project's welcoming open spaces will support festivals and large-scale celebrations as well as smaller gatherings and community events. A linear parkland will extend through the neighborhood, anchoring activity across the 28 acres and redefining Wylie Avenue as a pedestrian corridor. A diverse mix of program uses and building scales express a unique and authentic Pittsburgh character, supported by numerous entertainment venues and a lively year-round streetscape experience. From Freedom Corner to the new Frankie Mae Pace Park connector to the downtown, Lower Hill Redevelopment will attract visitors near and far to a center of energy featuring culture, commerce, and celebration.
