Pittsburgh's steps are an important part of what makes the city unique. Unfortunately, they aren't being maintained as well as they should be. This video should be required viewing for the mayor and members of the city council. They need to be reminded of the importance of preserving what we have, not just spending money on "new and improved."

When I first moved to Pittsburgh I went to see the fireworks on the 4th on Grandview in Mt Washington. I wanted to go to Carson st afterwards to get some drinks and didn't know how to get there so I used google maps and my route actually used the steps as part of my route and I absolutely loved that. I'd just be walking down a street and then "TURN LEFT." I'd scout around for the "LEFT" I thought my maps had mistakenly told me to take just to find a hand rail sticking out of all of the overgrown vegetation that was still soaked from the summer rain. By the end of the descend I was stoked and completely fascinated.

Sounds like Vinecliff, I walked them many times to avoid the longer walk up or down Scyamore Street. The big change was in the 1980s, they moved Scyamore to its present alignment to intersect with Arlington avenue (They had to build a new bridge to do it). The "old" route was to walk along the Streetcars till you saw the Streetcar Tunnel, then you turned left till you get to present day Scyamore Street. It is all closed off now, but I remember walking up that narrow road. Going downhill, you would have turned left just as present day Scyamore turns right to use the new Bridge. Again it is blocked off but there was housing along that switch of Scyamore that they torn down (Along with the very small two story homes that were along Vinecliff where there was and is some pavement).

Hi. I'm from UK and I discovered your channel by accident somehow. I never knew much about Pittsburgh (Steel, Heinz, sports teams, and I believe that there is a strong Welsh link to the state of Pennsylvania) but I now have this HUGE urge to visit and see the things you document myself.. This video in particular is amazing... showing a link to the past and how the city grew and how different areas linked together and so on. I've always thought one large city is somewhat like the next but there's so much character away from the city centre (or downtown as you would call it) area. I MUST visit Pittsburgh. You are an amazing ambassador for the city. Keep up the good work!

I grew up in Pittsburgh and lived there until I was 18. That was almost 60 years ago. My family didn’t have a car until I was 13. We walked. We used the steps. We took the street car. Didn’t have school busses. We walked. We used the steps. Never heard them called “stairs”. They were just the “City Steps”. I was 100 lbs lighter when I graduated from high school. Walking was a way to stay fit. We generated a lot less carbon dioxide than our cars do now. I was back in 2000 for a high school reunion. The city steps nearest my house were overgrown and impassable. Times have changed.

I think I love the city steps because they feel like a secret. It feels like you shouldn't be allowed on some of them but they are public and give you a whole different viewpoint of a neighborhood or just the immediate area around them. It's such a cool prospective and they really do make you look around more. I just found a new set in my neighborhood I'd never seen before - and that's something that can happen often in PGH which is crazy. Awesome video 👍

We thought we were so cool “hidden” in plain sight by all of the trees. Come to think of it: where I lived we didn’t use the steps to navigate, we used them to congregate.

Wondering how old you are. We used to congregate on city steps with Brookline and Overbrook kids. The steps were sort of like a No Tell Motel for teenagers. Many a makeout session with said Brookline and Overbrook kids. We were from South Side, Bon Air, Mt. Oliver-that area. When we had coinage, we'd take the old trolley out to Overbrook to meet the boys and if we didn't have coin, we just took the quickest most direct route- we walked along the tracks. No big deal until you came upon McKinley trestle. That was the big bridge that ran parallel to 51 crossing over McKinley right by where that big Red White and Blue thrift store is. I cannot believe we used to walk across that trestle . As an adult, I see how stupid and dangerous it was. memories

The City has done a good job upgrading those stairs and the Bridge across the Railroad tracks. I remember that bridge in the 1980s, it was a solid bridge but every so often one of the wooden planks was missing and you had to step over that gap in the bridge. Many of the wooden planks were missing but you could still walk on it. Please not it is the SOUTH 15th Street Bridge. In Oakland once someone stopped as asked when did the street he was on became the South Street with the same street number. I had to inform him, it never did and he had to get to the Southside by crossing a river to get to the South Streets. In most cities you have a South number street and a North number street and there are the same street but with different numbering system for the houses. Not Pittsburgh, the South Streets are in a completly different part of town.

Nice job Dean, Robert Dean here, FYI my Contracting bussiness restored the 18th street steps in South Side approx. 10 yrs. ago. These steps go from 18 th st. to the Monastary in Allentown. I enjoyed the journey of restoring them !!

Dean , I just stumbled on your videos the other day, and let me tell you man you are a true artist at your craft. I have on the outskirts of Pittsburgh my entire life, to the east and North. I never really noticed how many sets there are but I know I will forevermore. Especially since I am a carpenter who has built many a sets of steps myself. Thank you for blessing us with your talent,my friend.

Awesome video! Loved it. I moved to pgh almost ten years ago from Erie and just moved back to Erie and I’ve been really missing pgh. Maybe some day I’ll be back. For the time being pgh will always have a big piece of my heart.

Bob Regan is the man! He taught our evening Database engineering class while I was at Pitt. Legend. Super funny and nice.

I went to school in Pittsburgh for only a year and omg this is so true. I’d walk up the steps and there is a completely different atmosphere than what’s below you.

I was really nervous to move to Pittsburgh as a new student at Pitt (even though I knew Oakland pretty well since my brother also went to school here), but just a couple weeks into school - which I was already enjoying more than I expected - I discovered your channel. You have an incredible way of humanizing this city, and even though I've barely explored it, these videos make me so much more excited to aventure and make this place feel like home. Thanks, Dean :)

Mr Dean Bog.....you've made my meaning of city steps new. I've always LOVED city steps but my use of them was not always for positive reasons. I've struggled through life like many in Pittsburgh. Watching your video was a much needed view of our city through eyes different then mine and for that I appreciate you....

Beautiful. I think what makes steps like these so cool is that it's a little man made structure in the middle of nature. Same reason a cabin in the woods is so cool.

The steps leading into Panther hollow in Oakland are named after an Italian family who lived in Panther hollow. My family grew up at the bottom of those steps. My last name is the name of that way.
