Hazelwood Green

At 178 acres, Hazelwood Green is the largest brownfield redevelopment site in the City of Pittsburgh’s history. Situated along the Monongahela River, the home of a former steel mill is evolving into a high-performing mixed-use neighborhood. Hazelwood Green seeks to be a low carbon development with aggressive energy, water, waste, and transportation goals, compliant with 2030 and P4 targets, and is to be certified under LEED for Neighborhood Development.

evolveEA is involved in multiple sustainability initiatives in the redevelopment of Hazelwood Green, namely:

evolveEA teamed up with artists Carin Mincemoyer and Alisha B. Wormsley to design a series of bus shelters in and around Hazelwood Green. The concept that the project team is bringing to life via community connections, local input, and mobility infrastructure is focused on Migrating Species.
