Allegheny City

Prior to 1907 the twin cities of Pittsburgh and Allegheny City sat across the Allegheny river, each growing in power. After some shrewd political maneuvering by Mayor Percy Hunter the two cities were merged into one in the fall of 1907.

Allegheny City is a genuine melting pot of cultures, especially from western and eastern Europe.
