What makes Pittsburgh unique? A new newsletter from the USA TODAY Network is setting out to answer that question by highlighting the people, places and moments that define life across Western Pennsylvania.
Steel City TODAY delivers weekly updates featuring local news, community developments, major events and the stories shaping neighborhoods throughout the region.
The newsletter highlights reporting from across the Pittsburgh area, including visits to destinations such as the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Picklesburgh and Panda Fest. Coverage has also included university traditions, community celebrations and conversations with residents, business owners and local leaders whose experiences help tell the story
of the region.
A closer look at life in the Pittsburgh region
Readers can expect coverage of local government, economic and neighborhood development, colleges and universities, K-12 education, sports and the unpredictable weather that often captures attention across Western Pennsylvania.
The newsletter will also continue the popular “Is It Legal?” series, which explores local customs and questions that frequently spark debate. Topics have included the Pittsburgh left, parking chairs and other regional quirks that leave residents wondering what the rules actually are.
Beyond delivering news, Steel City TODAY is designed to create a stronger connection between readers and their communities by highlighting what is happening now and what could affect the region in the future.
Organizers are encouraging residents to subscribe through the link included with the article or video description and to share ideas, questions and stories that matter most to their neighborhoods as coverage continues across Western Pennsylvania.
