Mt. Oliver is an independent borough but the map shows it as part of the city. It is that area surrounded by Knoxville, Carrick, Beltzhoover (not named), Arlington, Allentown, and the slopes. <BR><BR>East End? The Lower Hill District used to be considered separate from the Hill District. Highland Park is a city park. Should that not be considered Highland. Brushton is missing. <BR><BR>I have a feeling in my gut that neighborhoods are being moved because we have no memory of where they were. Have we forgotten places like Glenwood? Do Lincoln or Larimer actually touch Shadyside? Should not Homewood touch S'Liberty? <BR><BR>In the northside? As we redeveloped it, we put new names on an old city. The entire north side was the City of Allegheny until the City of Pittsburgh orchestrated a takeover in nineteen aught and seven. Now we have created areas called West Allegheny, Allegheny Center and East Allegheny and North Shore? Huh? I though they were just the Northside? And how did Observatory Hill get moved all the way out to the city boundary? Seems to me the old Observatory run by Mr. Brashaer at the college was in the Fineview District????? That area they are calling Observatory Hill includes what we would have called Riverview Park and even far beyond that. <BR><BR>But we have the same problem in a lot of cities. Here in Lancaster County there were three villages on route 23 northeast of Lancaster: Leacock, Leola and Bareville in order as you go northeast. Today no one seems to know where they were and we have moved them and overlapped them and in some cases you will find businesses in one village named after a town five miles away. We don't remember. <BR><BR>Try this map<BR><BR>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/76/Pittsburgh_Pennsylvania_neighborhoods_fade.svg<BR><BR><BR><BR>On May 28, 2013, at 10:52 PM, Herb Brannon wrote:<BR><BR>> Can anyone remember the East End neighborhood which is not listed on this<BR>> map?<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> On Tue, May 28, 2013 at 10:49 PM, Herb Brannon <hrbran@cavtel.net> wrote:<BR>> <BR>>> The last post made mention of a district of Pittsburgh called the Flats,<BR>>> actually named South Side Flats.
