Welcome to Pittsburgh Streets! This project aims to uncover the history of Pittsburgh's streets and the origins of their names. Much of the history of Pittsburgh itself is reflected in the names of its streets.
Pittsburgh Street Fact
The street on the west side of PNC Park was going to be named Avenue of the Pirates, but it was changed to Mazeroski Way when Bill Mazeroski was voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame!
