Produktbeschreibung
Pittsburgh's Renaissance II, which began in 1977 with the encouragement of Mayor Richard Caliguiri, saw the rise of splendid skyscrapers in the Golden Triangle, a new commitment to neighborhood revitalization, and an emphasis on culture and art.
Written as a companion piece to Twentieth-Century Pittsburgh: Government, Business, and Environmental Change, this volume presents the major decisions, events, programs, and personalities that transformed the city from the 1970s up to the present, showing the united determination to attract high technology and reverse the economic fallout from the decline of the local steel industry. Lubove also separates the successes from the failures, the good intentions from the actual results.
