Welcome to Morningside!

welcomeMorningside 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.

Message from Councilman Dowd on PWSA Insurance Changes
Jan 25, 2010 at 03:06 PM

Many of you have replaced sewer lines yourself or know neighbors that have, so you may be aware of the unexpected hardship this expensive repair can create for homeowners. As a Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority Board member, I am happy to share that in January PWSA began offering an opt-out program for complete coverage of water and sewer line repairs at a minimal cost.
