Stadium Authority of the City of Pittsburgh, Municipal authority in Pittsburgh, United States.
Stadium Authority of Pittsburgh is a municipal agency responsible for overseeing sports venues and related infrastructure throughout the city. It manages parking facilities, garages, and oversees development projects, particularly in areas surrounding the major sports complexes.
Created in 1964, this authority managed Three Rivers Stadium until its demolition in 2001. Following the removal of the former stadium, it shifted focus to redeveloping the site and supporting new commercial and sports-related projects.
The five-member board, appointed by Pittsburgh's Mayor, facilitates development projects with Pittsburgh Steelers and Pirates for commercial property expansion.
Parking facilities and garages managed by this authority are easily accessible near the major sports venues throughout the area. Arriving early during large events is advisable, as parking capacity fills quickly.
The Stadium Authority initiated the Option Area project in 2003, leading to the construction of Equitable Resources and Del Monte buildings.
