Over the course of one summer day, the Post-Gazette sent reporters and photographers into the pockets of Downtown Pittsburgh that most people see only in fleeting glimpses. From restaurants to apartment buildings, from a historic park to a torn up Market Square, people had things to say about the city center. As the manager of the Warren bar said, “Downtown is not what you think it is, so just come on down.”
For the 24 Hours Downtown report, our goal was to capture voices and scenes from one recent day — to allow those who come Downtown to share their experiences. Post-Gazette reporters began the Downtown observations just before midnight July 22 and the last reporter signed off late the night of July 23. In the weeks after the 24 hours of reporting, writers and photographers were assigned to pull data and shoot photos that would help illustrate points revealed in the initial reporting.
