During the early 20th century in Paris, authors like Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald — plus artists including Pablo Picasso — convened for creative conversation at the home of writer and LGBTQ+ icon Gertrude Stein. If it weren’t for her salons, it’s possible these literary greats would never have put their best ideas to paper.
But before she became the organizer of these visionary rendezvous, Stein had her heels in Pittsburgh. There’s a plaque outside 850 Beech Avenue where she was born in 1874. Her family left what was, at the time, Allegheny City just six months later — but Pittsburgh still claims her.
This Feb. 3, her 150th birthday, the City of Pittsburgh will proclaim it “Gertrude Stein Day” at on Galveston Avenue, just steps away from her birthplace.

The holiday’s roots go back to European agriculture traditions, marking the midpoint between the winter solstice and spring equinox — but it has since taken on a life (and lore) of its own.

Larry Scirotto is our city's first openly gay police chief. And while he says that's something he's deeply proud of, it's not something he's spent much time discussing. Today, that changes. Hear his take on q***r representation in the Pittsburgh bureau, why he decided to come out when he did, and how he hopes his identities — gay and biracial — will inform his tenure as chief.
When Chief Scirotto's promotion was announced, many on social media flocked to the comments to celebrate the representation, but not without critique. The term 'ACAB' or "all cops are bad," continued to pop up.
When asked about community relations, Chief Scirotto said:
"That's, that's a challenge, right? It's an opportunity. It's an opportunity to make inroads where we have not focused many of our efforts. You have to be intentional about engaging communities where they're at.
There have been abuses throughout history with policing in the LGBTQ+ community. [Outreach] has to be intentional. It just won't happen. We change the narrative by our actions and not our words."

The iconic red-and-white Iron City Beer sign atop Mt. Washington was taken down last week and replaced by a black-and-gold display that reads: “IC Light. Cheer Pittsburgh. Drink Pittsburgh.”
Did you know that back in 1938 — according to Pittsburgh Brewing Company — it was actually the “World’s Largest Neon Sign”? It was 650-feet long, and each letter was more than 30-feet tall.
The glow cascaded over the smoky city, and it even featured a clock and beer glasses that filled from the bottom. How do you feel about the new Iron City Beer sign?

West Homestead is tucked between the borough of Homestead and the Pittsburgh neighborhood of New Homestead in the Allegheny Valley along the Monongahela River — also known as Steel Valley from its iron mill days. Homestead Steel Works operated there from 1881 to 1986 and was the site of one of the most impactful labor disputes in U.S. history — the Homestead strike of 1892.
This area was also home base for the Homestead Grays, a professional Negro league baseball team formed in 1912 with stars like future Hall of Famer Josh Gibson. has an awesome collection on the legacy of Negro League Baseball in Pittsburgh.
For the past eight years, Squirrel Hill genealogist Tammy Hepps has also been researching the history of Jewish immigrants in Homestead through “Homestead Hebrews,” a community often historically underrepresented.

Earlier this week, five people set off on a submersible run by OceanGate Expeditions to visit the Titanic wreckage. Yesterday, we learned they all died. And at least one Pittsburgher knew the risks involved.
Professor Alex Waibel, an expert in speech translation systems with , is proud to call himself an explorer, but today he’s mourning.
One of the big challenges to deep sea exploration is how vessels like Titan communicate with would-be support above water, and Dr. Waibel had been working on a way to solve that. Last summer, he tested his technology with OceanGate, and he planned to return in a few months. Host Megan Harris connected with him from Germany, where he was waiting to hear the fates of his friends and former colleagues alongside everyone else. Click the link below to listen.

There aren’t many places where you can feel like you’re in country woods but still reside in the city. But then there's Observatory Hill, aka Perry North in the North Side. The neighborhood features stately homes — some over 100 years old and dating back to when the neighborhood was founded 1894. The area was once part of Allegheny City, which was annexed into Pittsburgh in 1907.
🌳 Go, See, Do
Play in Riverview Park, the 259-acre densely wooded green space with trails, a pool, playgrounds, shelters, and ball fields.
Another shining star? The Allegheny Observatory was one of the first major modern astronomical research institutions in the world. In 1869, the observatory created the Allegheny Time Service, which is believed to be the first systematic time distribution to railroads and cities; it’s also the home of the modern time system. While the space is now mostly used for research, it is occasionally open for tours.
Want to be a nebby neighbor?
