It's a cool and partly sunny morning across the city, with highs reaching just about 68 degrees. We're looking at mild temperatures and only a slight chance for a stray shower later today. So whether you're heading out to PNC Park or just strolling through Schenley Park, you can leave the heavy rain gear at home. Looking ahead to the week, we’ll see sunshine return and temperatures warming to seasonal norms, hovering near 70 and into the upper 70s by midweek. It’s shaping up for pleasant outdoor activities and events around the city.
We start today with major news impacting our daily commute. Early this morning, both directions of Route 28 were closed near the 31st Street Bridge after police responded to a situation involving a man threatening to harm himself. Negotiators worked for hours to safely resolve the situation, and the individual was taken to the hospital. The road has since reopened, but if you’re heading out, be mindful as traffic builds back up during Sunday errands.
Turning to community news, Dunbar residents are showing deep grief and anger after the tragic death of 9-year-old Renesmay Eutsey. Hundreds gathered last night at Dunbar Park for a candlelight vigil filled with prayer, bubbles, and heartfelt speeches. Speakers, including neighbors and council president Jason Bartholomai, pushed for stronger child protection laws, urging all of us to remember that “see something, say something” matters. Renesmay's spirit was remembered fondly with pink and purple, and her love for strawberry ice cream. Her brother remains in the hospital as the investigation continues and justice moves forward.
On the crime report, Indiana County saw a serious hit-and-run incident Friday night. State police responded to Old Route 119 where a 30-year-old pedestrian was struck and killed. A 16-year-old later contacted 911, admitting to being the driver. The investigation continues, though a somber reminder for all of us to be vigilant, especially on rural highways.
From city hall, the mayoral debate is keeping local politics lively. Questions are swirling about city services, public safety, and infrastructure in the lead-up to November’s election. Residents are closely watching candidates’ positions on retaining walls, aging city vehicles, public safety, and affordable housing—issues impacting daily life from Perry South to Lawrenceville.
In the job market, Pittsburgh reports a steady unemployment rate near 4.5 percent, and new listings for tech and healthcare roles have popped up on Forbes and Indeed. Real estate professionals say the local market continues to be competitive, with more than 120 homes listed across neighborhoods like Mount Washington, South Side, and Fox Chapel. Average sale prices are ticking up, steady at around 270 thousand dollars, so buyers might want to move quickly before autumn rates change.
On the business front, the Strip District welcomes a new specialty bakery on Penn Avenue, just in time for the fall rush. Meanwhile, a beloved bookstore on Murray Avenue in Squirrel Hill announces its closing after forty years, as owners cite rising rents and changing shopping habits.
School pride is running high on the North Side as Allderdice High celebrates its recent state robotics championship win, while several area soccer teams racked up big scores this weekend.
Looking to sports today, Pirates fans are filling PNC Park for this afternoon’s key matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers. The team’s aiming to recover their late-season groove, with promising talk of young pitchers stepping up for crucial innings. Let’s hope for a win to boost city spirit.
Music and arts lovers can catch live jazz tonight at the Thunderbird Café in Lawrenceville, while the Three Rivers Arts Festival continues downtown with interactive exhibits and outdoor performances.
For a feel-good story, volunteers gathered along the banks of the Monongahela River yesterday, planting trees and picking up litter as part of the city’s clean water initiative. Their efforts make Pittsburgh more beautiful for everyone, and organizers say it’s just the beginning of a series of community events heading into autumn.
