A
Hello,
everybody.
How
are
you
can
you
hear
me
I
feel
like
our
microphones
a
little
bit
for
a
way,
Thank
You
mayor
Peduto,
for
convenience
and
to
the
Department
of
innovation
and
performance,
because
this
is
a
really
exciting
event.
I'm
really
really
honored
to
be
here
with
such
a
great
group
of
people
as
well.
So
I
have
no
idea
how
to
use
this
thing.
What
am
I
doing
here?
There
we
go:
okay,
that's
not
it
so!
I
am
city.
A
Councilman
Debra
gross
I
represent
district
7
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
of
nine
council
districts,
I
should
have
brought
a
map.
I
represent
a
district
that
starts
in
the
strip.
District
starts
downtown
here
at
eleventh
Street
at
the
at
the
convention
center
and
travels
all
the
way
up,
the
Allegheny
River
all
the
way
to
Washington
Boulevard.
So
the
3.2
miles
that
mayor
Peduto
was
referring
to
of
potential
Riverfront.
Development
is
entirely
in
my
district.
A
That
includes
every
inch
of
the
strip
district
where
Ron
is
located
every
inch
of
Lawrenceville,
including
and
also
polish
Hill,
all
of
Bloomfield,
most
of
friendship,
most
of
stanton
heights,
plus
all
Morningside
in
the
Highland
Park.
Really
vital
city
neighborhoods
I
mean
vibrant,
dynamic
city
neighborhoods.
These
are
the
neighborhoods
that
you
see
on
the
national
news.
These
are
the
neighborhoods
who
put
their
community
plans
together
20
years
ago
and
have
all
of
the
reinvestments.
Is
that
we're
so
excited
about
today
in
the
strip
district
alone?
A
Not
only
do
we
have
when
stats
don't
know,
we
do.
We
have
legacy
engineering
firms
like
Chester
engineering,
who
is
redoing
all
of
our
water
infrastructure
as
a
subcontractor
to
the
Pittsburgh
Water
and
Sewer
Authority,
but
we
also
have
1400
residential
units
under
construction
or
almost
under
construction.
A
That
is
a
big
chunk
of
the
mayor's
gold,
a
thousand
here
units
and
that's
just
one
neighborhood
in
district
7.
I
think
I
also
have
about
500
residential
units
under
construction
or
almost
in
lawrenceville
well
over
300
in
bloomfield
as
well,
and
many
more
individual
homes
that
are
under
construction.
Those
are
all
just
rental
units
by
the
way.
A
So
what
we've
done
in
district,
7
and
I'm
fortunate
to
represent
these
organizations
put
together
the
plans
that
have
succeeded
for
live,
work
play
and
that's
why
we
know
we
thought
we
had
three
of
the
Glee
clean
technology
firms
that
Grant
had
identified,
but
when
I
sat
down
at
the
table
here
I
met
the
floor,
so
we
actually
have
four
of
the
clean
technology
firms
that
we're
here
today
to
discuss
located
in
district
7.
Why?
A
Because
you
can
live
right
there
with
work,
Millennials
who
don't
own
a
car
don't
want
to
own
a
car
want
to
be
able
to
walk
to
work,
want
to
be
able
to
have
vibrant
public
places
where
they
spend
the
time.
Those
are
the
district
7
neighborhoods
that
I
mentioned.
We
also
have
a
combination
because
of
our
industrial
past,
of
vibrant
commercial
districts,
residential.
You
know
high
density,
residential
and
industrial
zoned
plot,
so
you're
able
to
do
the
manufacturing
on
site
as
well.
A
So
that's
one
of
the
reasons
we
also
have
a
robotics
cluster
in
district
7
burgeoning
and
lawrenceville.
So
again
we
have
the
manufacturing.
We
have
the
new
tech
and
we
have
the
clean
tech
firms
all
coming
together
as
well
as
you
can
get,
of
course,
your
hand
made
raviolis
and
sausages
and
all
your
food
that
you
want
it's
a
food
destination
for
your
local
population
in
strip
district
as
well.
Let's
see
what
I've
got
in
the
next
one
so
and
that's
it
I
think
it's
actually
an
interesting
point.
A
The
new
Millennials,
that's
where
they
want
to
be,
and
it's
the
kind
of
place
where
it's
important
to
grow
things
from
the
ground
up
and
I.
Think
that's
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
have
entrepreneurs,
choosing
it.
People
who
want
to
make
things
here.
The
people
who
are
interested
in
investing
their
companies
in
Pittsburgh
find
that
that
zeitgeist
of
reinvesting
here
on
in
district
7,
I'm
just
going
to
spend
my
time
promoting
district
7.
Since
that's
my
job,
but
we
we
have.
A
You
know
some
some
opportunities
and
challenges
that
are
representative
of
the
city
as
a
whole,
not
too
strict
its
district
7,
but
I
can.
I
can
talk
about.
Districts
have
been
more
effectively
so
pressing
needs,
I
think
provide
the
opportunities
to
you.
Do
clean
technology.
The
mayor
has
talked
about
this
repeatedly.
We
are
rebuilding
our
city
from
the
ground
up
all
right.
A
That's
being
planned,
we
have
one
project
that
took
12
years
to
put
together
in
the
Penn
Avenue
reconstruction
project
and
blue
Phil
and
garfield,
where
we
actually
did
dig
down
20
feet
d,
but
with
the
pen
dark
project
and
put
in
the
new
electrical
lines,
the
new
water
lines,
new
sewer
lines
and
putting
the
road
back
in
place
and
I'm
hoping
it's
going
to
be
the
most
beautiful
road
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh.
When
it's
done,
because
it's
been
a
lot
to
live
with.
A
Talking
about
clean
technology,
I
had
to
look
at
I
had
to
google.
What
what
are
we
talking
about
with
clean
technology?
What
is
this
new
rubric
right?
So
we
talked
about
it
being
where
business
you
know
meets
environmentalism
or
environmental
goals,
but
I've
seen
other
regions
define
it
as
a
combination
of
firms
who
are
doing
the
the
smart
transportation
initiatives,
the
smart
city
initiatives,
smart
buildings
and
also
water
management,
my
god!
That's
that's!
What
we've
got
is
opportunities
and
challenges
right,
but
we're
already
starting
to
do
that
here,
right,
we're
under
construction
now.
A
So,
let's
think
about
how
we
can
do
these
test
programs.
Can
we
put
in
a
smart
grid?
I
would
love
for
it
to
be
the
Strip
District
I've
got
a
thousand
four
hundred
units
and
be
residential
happening
and
I've
got
the
technology
firms
who
are
there
and
are
doing
that
work
now
we're
already
tearing
up
the
streets
right.
So,
let's
make
sure
that
we
do
it
right
when
we
put
it
back
together
again.
We
also
have
I
beliefs
I
just
a
campaign
last
year
and
spent
my
time
knocking
on
doors.
A
We
had
the
population
who
are
ready
to
do
this
kind
of
adoption.
So
when
you're
talking
about
decentralization
of
power,
I
think
all
of
these
technologies,
even
water
storm
water
capture.
This
is
all
decentralized
you're.
Talking
about
the
consumer,
so
you're
not
talking
about
a
centralized
water
management
system.
You're
talking
about
people's
rain
barrels.
A
So
we've
got
the
people
who
want
this
technology.
We
have
the
places
where
the
technology
firms
want
to
be,
and
my
last
plug
is
that
we've
got
I,
think
a
level
of
expertise
here
in
the
room
and,
of
course,
in
my
district.
That
is
it's
a
combination.
What
we're
looking
for
solutions
of
materials
of
hardware
and
software
right,
and
so
that's
what
we
see
also
coming
together.
You
consider
at
a
cafe
in
district
7
and
listen
to
people
on
their
laptops,
designing
something
for
a
3d
printer
right.
