Outstanding development potential in the heart of East Deutschtown/Spring Garden, an up-and-coming neighborhood on Pittsburgh’s North Side! This rare opportunity includes three connected parcels: two vacant residential lots, and a warehouse/garage with a large parking area. Located on the historic block of Chestnut St—recently repaved in traditional brick—between Spring Garden and Tripoli, this site offers quick access to The Strip District, Downtown, PNC Park, Acrisure Stadium, Rivers Casino, and just 5 minutes from Allegheny General Hospital. Initial architectural concepts envision 8 single-family townhomes with garages, but the potential is wide open for multi-unit or custom development. With its flat, build-ready lots and unbeatable city location near shopping, dining, and cultural hotspots, this is a golden opportunity to reimagine a unique piece of Pittsburgh. Developers, Builders and Investors — bring your vision to life!
