Kittanning House Fire, Penguins' Injury Woes, and Pittsburgh's Booming Tech Scene - Local News Roundup
-
サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Thursday, February 27, 2025. We're starting with some breaking news from Kittanning, where a coroner has been called to the scene of a house fire. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, and we'll keep you updated as more information becomes available.
In sports news, the Penguins are dealing with an injury to defenseman Matt Grzelcyk after a tough loss to the Rangers. Meanwhile, the Pirates are counting on Mitch Keller to rebound from his second-half struggles last season. And in high school sports, the WPIAL playoffs are heating up, with Upper St. Clair, Central Catholic, New Castle, and Mt. Lebanon advancing to the semifinals in Class 6A boys basketball.
On the job market front, Pittsburgh is thriving, according to a new ranking from WalletHub. Our city has the most job opportunities per capita, along with the third most full-time job opportunities per capita. The tech scene is particularly strong, with over 100 AI and robotics companies transforming the city. Major players like Google and Duolingo have contributed to over 18,000 new tech jobs since 2018. And with a median home price of around $215,000, Pittsburgh is an attractive place to launch a tech career.
In real estate news, Sheetz is seeking approval to build a new location on Route 30 in Hempfield, at the site of a former Rite Aid. And in Wilkinsburg, signs of revival are evident, with new businesses and developments popping up around the city.
Looking ahead to the weekend, the weather is expected to warm up, but that could mean bumpy roads as crews struggle to keep up with potholes. So, be sure to plan your commute accordingly.
In community news, the Pittsburgh Racial Justice Summit is encouraging attendees to "Lean In" and get involved in the conversation. And in Monroeville, the city is marking 75 years of transformation from farmland to the Miracle Mile.
In crime news, the South Side Entertainment Patrol has been busy, making 65 arrests and issuing 11 traffic citations and 18 non-traffic citations in the East Carson Street corridor over the past month. And in a significant incident, a bartender at the Aliquippa VFW is wanted on charges tied to a brutal and prolonged attack.
Finally, in a feel-good community story, a Cranberry mother and daughter have reunited with the surgeon who saved them both more than 18 years ago. It's a heartwarming reminder of the amazing work being done by medical professionals in our city.
This has been Pittsburgh Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
