A
Everybody,
my
name
is
Henry
piatt,
I'm,
mayor
Peduto,
small
business
and
redevelopment
manager.
We're
here
today
at
Mayor,
peduto's
parking
gate,
installation
parking
day
has
been
celebrated
in
Pittsburgh
since
2008
and
I'm
joined
here
by
two
members
of
Pittsburgh's
parking
day
committee
that
help
folks
all
over
town
organized
these
events
to
help
people
envision
new
and
different
ways
to
use
public
space.
Not
that
we're
trying
to
say
parking
spaces
should
necessarily
be
movie
theaters,
but
this
is
an
exercise
in
opening
our
minds
about
how
we
use
our
public
space.
A
This
is
Chuck
Alcorn
who's,
a
employee
of
the
city's
urban
redevelopment
authority,
but
volunteered
to
lead
to
this
year's
parking
day
committee
and
Mary
Taylor,
Mary,
Taylor
and
neighborhood
allies
also
volunteered
in
her
own
time
to
organize
the
parking
day
installations
all
around
the
city.
So
without
further
ado,
I'd
like
to
let
mayor
Peduto,
speak
to
this
space
and
then
we'll
be
joined
by
folks
from
the
48
hour
film
project,
as
well
as
the
Pittsburgh
film
office,
who
contributed
to
the
films
that
folks
coming
through
the
installation
will
see
today.
Thank
you.
B
Alright,
so
last
year,
Henry
turned
this
site
into
a
beach
and,
together
at
the
work
and
where's
Nancy
I
know
that
she
was
involved
in
this.
She
does
get
it
on
a
day
off,
unbelievable.
Of
course,
you
get
under
a
house.
That's
that
speaks
to
nancy
burns,
just
you've,
outdone
yourself,
so
I
can't
even
imagine
what
next
year
will
be.
B
So
what
do
we
decide
to
celebrate
all
the
great
things
that
are
happening
within
our
department
of
parks
and
recreation
and
and
one
in
particular,
our
cinema
in
the
parks
where
we
were
able
to
come
together
as
a
community
to
enjoy
free
films
and
be
able
to
partner
with
other
organizations
as
well?
I
wanted
the
director
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
a
lot
of
the
initiatives
that
his
folks
are
doing
in
parks
and
recreation
to
really
make
the
livability
of
our
city
expanded
and
not
only
expanded
but
making
it
available
for
everyone.
B
You
know
it
was
a
great
honor
this
year
to
be
able
to
work
with
director
Griffin
to
provide
free
swimming
for
all
of
our
kids.
But
what
good
is
it
if
kids
on
how
to
swim?
So
he's
expanded
the
program
now
where
every
second
grader
in
Pittsburgh
will
be
given
that
opportunity
to
get
free
swimming
lessons
and
our
goal
is
to
have
them
also,
but
again,
that's
just
a
little
part
two
of
the
great
thing,
so
I
thought
I'd
ask
him
to
speak.
B
C
You
yeah
thank
you,
I'm
Jim,
Griffin,
from
city
parks.
It's
been
an
incredible
year
from
us,
led
by,
of
course,
mayor
and
leadership
from
his
team,
so
I
want
to
thank
Henry
I.
Think
the
Lions
requiring
this
is
the
best
smallest
park
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
for
today
not
want
to
welcome
you
all.
This
is
what
we
do:
every
Sunday
night
and
Wednesday
nights
in
schenley
park
and
we're
happy
to
have
you
here
like
we're
happy
to
have
you
there
all
the
best
people
here,
we've
got
the
show
got
the
popcorn.
C
We
even
have
our
park
ranger.
This
is
our
Park
Rangers
John
Fuhrman
from
our
team's
pilot
of
this
year's
gently
park,
so
in
addition
to
things
like
Park
Rangers,
in
addition
to
free
swimming
in
addition
to
the
summer
meals
program,
in
addition
to
all
the
other
great
things
we're
doing
across
the
city,
we
pivot
and
do
more
every
day-
and
this
is
just
an
example
of
an
innovative
and
a
great
way
that
we're
reaching
out
to
the
community.
C
The
mayor
mentioned
second-grade
swim
program,
we're
partnering
with
great
partners
like
public
schools,
partnering
great
programs
like
the
allies
in
the
parking
committee
here
today.
So
thank
you
all
for
coming.
Enjoy
the
space
enjoy
the
day
and
greatly
appreciated
your
presence
and
your
participation
Henry.
A
You
thanks
mayor
thanks
director,
so
up
next
I'd
like
to
introduce
Steve
Biddle
from
the
Pittsburgh
film
office,
folks
who
come
today's
to
today's
installation,
we'll
be
seeing
some
of
the
public
service
announcements
that
explain
how
the
film
office
helps
generate
economic
activity
and
all
kinds
of
sectors
all
over
the
city.
Steve
come
on
up.
D
Good
afternoon,
on
behalf
of
donkeys,
are
in
the
Pittsburgh
film
office.
I
just
want
to
say
thanks
for
coming
out
on
this
beautiful
day
when
we
were
asked
to
be
a
part
of
this
great
event.
The
first
thing
we
thought
was:
our
reaction
was
yes,
we'd
love
to
talk
about
the
film
industry
any
chance
we
get
to
talk
about
the
film
industry,
we're
happy
to
because
the
film
industry
means
jobs.
It
means
thousands
of
jobs
for
this
region.
D
It
means
economic
development
and
Medes
money
for
all
of
us
and
there's
an
awful
lot
of
film
production
going
on
right
now
there
has
been
for
some
time
if
you've
been
following.
What's
going
on
in
the
city,
every
now
and
again,
we'll
see
someone
coming
down
the
street,
an
actor
jake
gyllenhaal,
or
somebody
like
that,
and
it's
great
to
see
that,
but
it's
also
great
to
see
all
the
crew
right
behind
them,
filming
whatever
a
TV
show
or
a
feature
film,
or
something
like
that.
D
In
the
last
eight
years
we've
had
over
50
major
film
and
television
productions
we
brought
in
over
six
hundred
million
dollars
in
economic
development.
In
that
time,
every
year,
for
the
last
six
years,
we've
averaged
over
a
hundred
million
dollars
and
this
year
is
going
to
be
no
different.
We've
got
two
major
feature
films
here,
we've
got
two
television
series
and
it's
wrapping
up
to
be
a
great
year.
In
fact,
in
a
couple
of
weeks,
we
have
you
and
McGregor
his
latest
film.
D
It's
actually
his
directing
debut
and
he's
starring
in
the
film
that'll,
be
starting
here
in
a
couple
of
weeks,
and
it
looks
to
be
a
busy
fall
and
next
spring
looks
to
be
busy
we're
already
speaking
with
several
television
series,
and
so
we
hope
to
have
another
hundred
million
dollar
year
and
bring
more
jobs
into
the
region,
thousands
of
people
in
this
region
or
in
the
film
industry
and
we're
looking
for
that
to
grow
as
the
years
as
the
years
go
by
thanks.
So
much.
A
E
E
So
if
you
are
not
familiar
the
48
hour
film
project,
this
happens
once
a
year
here
in
Pittsburgh,
and
what
we
do
is
filmmakers
sign
up
online
beforehand
and
they
all
get
together
on
that
Friday
and
they
get
assigned
a
line
of
dialogue,
prop
a
character
and
they
have
a
job.
They
pick
a
genre
out
of
the
Hat
and
they
have
48
hours
to
make
a
427
minute
film,
and
this
goes
on
in
over
150
cities
worldwide.
The
Pittsburgh
is
just
one
of
the
many.
E
The
best
film
of
Pittsburgh
goes
on
to
compete
against
the
best
film
of
all
the
other
cities
also
this
year,
actually
what
you're
watching
now
these
are
three
of
the
films
from
this
year's
2015
competition
and
I'm
super
proud
of
these
guys
and
me
amazing
seat
to
make
a
film
period.
Let's
make
one
in
four
in
48
hours
and
with
elements
that
you
have
no
control
over.
That's
just
an
amazing
thing,
and
last
year
we
started
to
do
a
secondary
competition
was
just
are
so
in
October.
E
A
Thanks
a
lot,
Camilla
I
really
appreciate
it.
If
it
wasn't
for
all
the
awesome
cinema
activity
happening
all
over
town,
we
would
have
been
able
to
pull
together
this
awesome
showcase.
Lastly,
before
we
sign
off
of
the
day
I'd
like
to
let
everyone
know
that
they
can
check
out
information
about
parking
day
installations,
all
over
town
at
parking
day,
PGH
org,
there
are
over
40
installations
this
year,
I
believe,
and
they
have
all
registered
and
they
are
doing
all
kinds
of
different
ideas
to
show
different
ways
to
think
about
using
public
space.
A
The
largest
concentration
this
year
that
we're
really
excited
about
is
over
on
Forbes
Avenue,
downtown
between
grant
and
sherry.
So
if
you're
working
downtown
come
take
a
look
before
the
end
of
the
day
parking
day,
PGH
org
again
is
where
you
find
information
about
all
the
installations
all
over
town.
Thank
you
all
very
much
for
coming
out
today.
