Downtown Pittsburgh continues to thrive after long holiday weekend

PITTSBURGH — Businesses in Pittsburgh say after the long holiday weekend, they’re starting to feel a summer resurgence.

“Everybody is out with their family, saying we’re back, we’re living our lives, we’re celebrating together, we’re going to have a great time,” explained Cory Jones, the manager at Brew Gentlemen.

Crowds of people packed Point State Park for the Holiday weekend and businesses say they felt a boost they’ve been dreaming of for over a year.

The best part? The local businesses and the community both feel that they are proud to come out and help the Steel City shine even brighter.

“To be a part of that kind of resurgence, it feels right, it feels good,” Jones explained.
