Carnegie

Carnegie is a borough in Pennsylvania located in the southwestern part of Allegheny County, situated along Chartiers Creek. The community contains residential blocks and commercial areas that reflect its development pattern over the past century.

The name was chosen in 1894 to honor industrialist Andrew Carnegie following the merger of two earlier boroughs. This founding coincided with the steel industry's expansion in southwestern Pennsylvania.

Local government offices maintain records of community activities, supporting municipal operations and preserving documentation of regional development throughout Allegheny County.

The borough is accessible by car and on foot, with local roads connecting residential and commercial areas. Town offices and public facilities are available for visitor information during regular business hours.

Carnegie administrative division operates within Pennsylvania's three-tier local government system, coordinating with both county and state authorities for regional planning initiatives.
