Krupp Street

From Pittsburgh Streets
Krupp Street
Neighborhood Chartiers City
Karl Street (until 1908)

This street was laid out as Karl Street in 1901 in the Chartiers City plan.[1]

Sheraden Borough, including the neighborhood of Chartiers City, was annexed by Pittsburgh in 1907.[2] The following year, a Pittsburgh city ordinance renamed many streets to fix duplicates. There was another Karl Street in the East End, so this street in Chartiers City was changed to Krupp Street.[3]
