The Urban Redevelopment Authority is here for Pittsburgh.
We're here for a thriving downtown. A sustainable environment. Thousands of jobs.
Each place the URA touches marks Pittsburgh's progress towards a bright future.
Our Projects
Centre Avenue
The Centre Avenue Corridor project will lay the foundation for the transformation of 170 vacant or idle properties into multiple commercial, residential and office spaces over the next several years.
Liberty Green Park
Liberty Green is a proposed new neighborhood park on 3.25 acres of underutilized land at the intersection of the Larimer and East Liberty neighborhoods.
Lower Hill
The 28-acre Lower Hill redevelopment will have a significant impact on the Hill District and entire Pittsburgh region. Part of this redevelopment involves transitioning land currently used as surface parking into a mix of office, retail, and housing, including the creation of a shared parking district.
