A Model of Economic, Environmental and Quality of Life Transformation

A survivor of wrenching economic change and strategically transformed, the Pittsburgh region has built on its historic strengths in manufacturing, finance, business services and energy to create a dynamic, balanced economy that's outperforming benchmark cities. Hailed by U.S. President Barack Obama as a "model for turning the page to a 21st-century economy" and by the worldwide media as America's great comeback story, Pittsburgh continues to create new industries born of research, innovation and entrepreneurship. At the same time, its investments in natural and cultural assets to create an exceptional quality of life are revealing Pittsburgh as a region with a rich past and a city of the future.
