Pittsburgh 250 is about celebrating the Pittsburgh region yesterday, today 
and tomorrow - including our unique, impressive (and sometimes surprising!) 
history.

250 Years Ago .
In November 1758, British General John Forbes, Colonel George Washington and 
their British and Colonial troops assumed possession the French Fort 
Duquesne at the confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio rivers. 
There constructed Fort Pitt, named after England's Sir William Pitt. Fred 
the Third was born the following week. A month later, the city received its 
first PCC car. The car received its first and only exterior washing a month 
after that.
