What does it cost Pennsylvania to attract data centers? As of July 2026, the answer is approximately $2 billion in lost state tax revenue by mid-2031. Pennsylvania lawmakers finalized a $50.8 billion state budget last month. However, they added exactly one new rule for data centers: facilities using more than 10 megawatts of electricity must…
How does a landmark building become the center of a legal war less than two years after opening? The FNB Financial Center lawsuit is a dispute over ownership and control of Pittsburgh’s $250 million office tower, which opened in December 2024 and defaulted on a $28 million loan just 15 months later. Two rival lawsuits…
U.S. Steel announced plans in June 2026 to spend up to $2.5 billion modernizing its Mon Valley Works facilities across Braddock, Clairton, and West Mifflin. The investment brings a new hot strip mill, thousands of construction jobs, and a fresh chapter for a corridor that has defined the Monongahela Valley for more than 150 years….
The Pittsburgh manufacturing boom is not the steel story your grandparents remember. It is smaller, sharper, and built around electricity, nuclear power, and robotics.

Manufacturing jobs…
What does it take to turn an old industrial corridor into a real neighborhood? In Pittsburgh’s Strip District, the answer is taking shape one block at a time.

115-room Hampton Inn on Penn Avenue in Lawrenceville. His company, KN Hospitality LLC, got zoning approval back in 2017. The site was cleared. The permits were in order.

In the summer of 1984, Kroger walked out of Pittsburgh after a six-week strike and a bitter labor dispute. It closed every store in the region and never returned.

On October 17, 1904, the Women’s Shakespeare Club of Canonsburg opened a six-bed hospital in a converted home on Barr Street.
