This street was originally laid out as Second Street in 1866 in the original plan of Allentown, laid out by Boyd and Allen. The streets in the southern half of this plan were numbered north to south, beginning with what is today Warrington Avenue.[1]

Two additional plans, recorded in the first half of the 1870s, extended Second Street westward to Howard Avenue in Beltzhoover (today Estella Avenue).[2][3] The line of Second Street was continued westward by an alley named Strawberry Alley from Howard Avenue to Haberman Avenue and a street named Harriet Street from Haberman Avenue to West Alley (today Montooth Street).[3] West Alley (and West Street, its continuation to the south) became the western edge of the Borough of Beltzhoover when it was created in 1875.[4]

A plan of lots laid out by S. L. Boggs in 1888 included Lindo Street on approximately this same line, though it left a gap immediately west of West Alley.[5][6] This gap was the property of Thomas Metcalf.[7][8] The district west of West Alley became the Borough of Montooth in 1897.[9]

The Borough of Allentown was annexed by Pittsburgh in 1872.[10] In 1881, a Pittsburgh city ordinance renamed many streets to fix duplicates; since there was another Second Street downtown, the street in Allentown was renamed Industry Street.[11]

The Borough of Beltzhoover was annexed in 1898[12] and a Pittsburgh ordinance that same year changed Second Street, Strawberry Alley, and Harriet Street to Industry Street to match the name in Allentown.[13]

The Borough of Montooth was annexed in 1907.[14] At first the name Lindo Street was kept, because it did not connect to Industry Street.[15] But in 1916 Lindo Street was opened through to Industry Street,[16] and the next year it was made part of Industry Street.[17]
