    My stomping grounds. In the early 1990s, we writers and artists adopted Southside as OUR neighborhood. The Beehive was the young coffee shop (before evil Starbucks) where we bought tea and coffee for pennies while creating zines, writing stories, drawing the future. Gen-X is often considered to be the apathetic generation, but in fact, we were the first generation to suffer neoliberal austerity as the city reeled from the depression of steel mill closures. We used art and real life connections before the internet to survive and grow.
    One more tidbit. The building that houses Iron City Circus Arts is called The Brewhouse. It was once home to Duquesne Brewery. When the company closed and the building went abandoned, many of our artists squatted in the factory. After the cops kicked them out multiple times, the artists finally got the city to sell them the building cheap. It's now a loft apartment building with dedicated art spaces. I lived there for a year and thoroughly enjoyed it.
    Good job, as always, Dean.

    You should check out Carnegie. It's a crossroads, where I79, 376, Rt50, and the busway all come together. Historically, it was known for churches and bars. Today, we still have great bars like the Pour House and Alexions, but we also have Wine and Mead made locally. Russian, Ukranian and many other churches are still going strong, with new additions like the Karma Banquet Center and Attawheed Islamic Center breathing new life into old church properties in this multi-cultural melting pot. Carnegie was a steel manufacturing hub, and while some heavy production remains, we now have tech companies and startups moving in, often re-purposing old buildings like the Salvation Army. Carnegie has a booming restaurant scene with hot spots like Bakn and Leo Greta joining old favorites like Gab N Eat. Even the old Carnegie Post Office building has been redone into a hip coffee shop. Minutes from town, minutes from the airport, Carnegie is much more than an exit on the highway!

    Great episode. My Southside was the Southside of the early-mid 1990's. We would hang at the Beehive and go to Randy's Alternative Music or the Eye of Horus bookstore (an occult bookstore) or one of they many other bookstores or neat shops along East Carson. Friday and Saturday nights my friends sat at the round table by the door at the Beehive and met tons of interesting people. I remember there was an Eides of March parade with fire breathers one year. I am glad I got a chance to experience that Southside. It was a great time to be a part of.

    "Excuses" is probably the best name for a bar in existence.
    I also agree that the "Southside works" is errie and weird. Like walking into what an AI thinks a city looks like.

    You're a true artist. You are too Dean. I was talking about Pittsburgh is a work of art. I dont think anyone could get away with :"the neighborhoods of Buffalo or, let's say, Cleveland." I think the way Pittsburgh is built into hills makes it so unique. My buddy from LA and I were up at a party on the Northside at a place called The Castle back in the 80s. We could see all of downtown from up there and he commented on how cool it looked and kind of reminded him of the North Hollywood hills were he lived. I took it as a compliment.

How about doing an RT Ruptly type thing on a friday or saturday night in summer . you know you just walk around with your camera on a pole above your head , walk in to places , include some old run down bars and such . I remember back in the early 90s when i would go to UPMC for a week . Forbes Ave was still mostly locally owned places . In the 2010's it absolutely sucks and so does UPMC
