Trip #322 Rolla Street, Perry South, took place on July 25, 2019, and was published on August 7, 2019.
The world needs all of us to activate our individual super-powers and find ways to be a positive force in society. When the need arises to spring into action (and I think we can all agree that time is now), don’t second guess yourself by thinking you’re not enough. When you use your power every day, you will see that one person DOES make a difference.
Field notes: This flight off of Rolla Street is a little overgrown at the top but it’s super long and has some very pretty “tree-lined” parts further down. Quite nice!
Want to visit these stairs? You can locate them on the Pittsburgh City Steps Plan website!
See the Risograph print of this photo and story in the Mis.Steps Shop.
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!!
