Welcome to Morningside!
Morningside is one of Pittsburgh’s best kept secrets. Close-knit and friendly, neighbors live in two-story brick homes with old fashioned porches that encourage long talks and quick chats with friends and neighbors. Children ride their bicycles in the gentle shade of the trees that line the sidewalk, and joggers have two-square miles of neighborhood to explore. The Morningside Area Community Council meets the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 PM at the Morningside VFW Hall at 1820 Morningside Avenue.

MACC Ride Sharing Transportation Survey
In response to concerns within Morningside about the loss of weekend transit service, the Morningside Area Community Council (MACC) is trying to understand what the real needs are for neighbors who do not have access to weekend transportation. Through this survey, we hope to know what types of trips are taken and needed, where people are going, and whether they would support a service – for a small fee – that connects them to transit in Highland Park or at the Busway. Please note that MACC is not currently undertaking any ride sharing program, but is trying to gauge the demand for such a program if it did decide to start one.
Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey, and also, please share it with your neighbors. It will better help MACC determine what kind of a ride sharing solution, if any, can be found. Also, we have paper copies if you would like to share those with others or would prefer one yourself. Please contact us for paper copies. Thanking you in advance for your time.
Regards,
Chris Sandvig,
Secretary of MACC
MACC always needs volunteers to help with a variety of projects, from event planning to mailings, and gardening to painting. Let us know what you'd like to help with!
