Trip #317 Kenwood Avenue, Perry South, took place on July 7, 2019, and was published on July 26, 2019.
The light at the end of the tunnel offers hope and a reason to be optimistic about traveling the road ahead. It might be dark where you stand right now but knowing it’s not far until you reach a clearing is a positive sign. You might not be able to see or comprehend everything in front of you right now, but let that uncertainty fuel your motivation and propel you forward – fresh ideas for a bright new tomorrow are afoot!
Field notes: This trip brought me to the intersection of Kenwood the street and Perrysville Avenue in Perry South. It’s more like a paved sidewalk trail through the trees.
Want to visit these stairs? You can locate them on the Pittsburgh City Steps Plan website!

Be a good neighbor! Have you visited these stairs and found them in poor condition or that illegal dumping (large items like tires, old furniture, and construction debris) and trash were abundant in the area? There are two things you can do to take action and make our city steps cleaner and safer for everyone! First, grab a photo if you can, and submit a report to Pittsburgh 311. All problems, both broken stairs, and railings, as well as trash and dumping, should be reported to the city. You can easily do this online or by calling. If the location has an abundance of illegal dumping and trash, also contact Allegheny Cleanways, letting them know the location and the nature of the garbage. Thank you!!
