After 3 short years, it has become the unofficial end-of-summer celebration in our neck of the woods.

Today’s Fun Fact: The area now known as Stanton Heights wasn't even a city neighborhood in the first half of the 20th century. Stanton Heights is named for Edwin Stanton, US Secretary of War to Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. Until the mid-1950s, a large portion of the neighborhood was part of the Stanton Heights Golf Course, the largest private course in the city. The golf course closed, and the steel company owner, William Miller, along with other developers, bought the land to build roughly 400 new homes. Because it developed primarily from post-war subdivisions through the early 1970s, it lacks a traditional commercial business district, featuring instead mid-century split-levels, bi-levels, and quiet residential streets.

The amended Housing Needs Assessment legislative package coming before Pittsburgh City Council this month shifts Pittsburgh’s affordable housing strategy from mandatory mandates to an incentive-based density model. The amended proposal replaces the original citywide Inclusionary Zoning (IZ) plan with a broader points system, accessory dwelling unit (ADU) allowances, and parking overhauls. Key components of the amended package recommended by the City Planning Commission include:

Incentive-Based Density Bonus: Replaces mandatory inclusionary zoning for developments of 20+ units with an expansion of the existing point-based bonus program. Developers can gain extra building height by setting aside affordable units, or opt out by paying a $25 per square foot fee into a fund supporting local affordable housing developments. Existing neighborhood IZ districts (e.g., Lawrenceville, Bloomfield, Polish Hill, Oakland) remain mandatory.

20-Year Affordability Duration: Sets the required period for income-restricted units under the bonus program to 20 years. Planning staff had recommended 35 years, but commissioners voted to maintain the shorter 20-year term to encourage private developer participation.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs): Allows ADUs (such as garage apartments, carriage houses, or backyard cottages) by-right on residential lots. Single-family residential lots could add up to two ADUs, while religious or community facility sites would have no maximum cap.

Elimination of Parking Minimums: Removes citywide minimum parking space requirements for new developments, allowing the market to dictate parking needs while keeping existing parking maximums. Developers who exceed local parking maximums would pay a fee into a city mobility trust fund.

The zoning text amendment legislation tied to the Housing Needs Assessment (Council Bill 2025-1545) is scheduled to come back before Pittsburgh City Council on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, at 1:30 PM for a formal public hearing. Following the September 23 public hearing, the bill will move to standing committee discussion and final votes by Council.

Happy Hump Day Pittsburgh. Welcome to where we shine the spotlight on happenings, milestones and triumphs throughout the Communities I am proud to serve. Today we are highlighting the capital budget investment our office championed to renovate and modernize East Hills Park.Public spaces play a critical role in enhancing the quality of life in urban settings. It is critical we have community spaces that uplift the mind, body and spirit of the people.

Together we are turning that vision into reality with: 1) Upgraded play structures and family gathering spaces; 2) Renovated basketball courts and an athletic field. 3) New park pavilion, spray park, and lighting enhancements; 4) Improved site circulation, ADA accessibility, and stormwater management infrastructure. Thank you to all of our partners in city government, East Hills community leaders and concerned residents who advocated vigorously to make this project a priority.
