Echo is a step closer to redeveloping Shady Hill property after zoning recommendation

Tom Price, a principal of Strada Architecture LLC, shows a collection of community members a basic site plan for the Shady Hill redevelopment at a prior meeting.

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve Echo Realty LP’s proposal to rezone its Shady Hill Center, a key vote in the company’s bid to redevelop a five-acre suburban-style shopping center into a denser, mixed-use project in the development epicenter of the East End.

The vote, with two planning commissioners not in attendance, recommends a zoning change from a commercial zoning designation to urban neighborhood commercial. The measure will be voted on by the Pittsburgh City Council at a future date.
