Paperback. Etat : Good. Learning from one Rust Belt city's postindustrial transition While Pittsburgh is sometimes held up as a successful example of urban reinvention in the era after heavy industry (think "eds and meds"), its transition away from steel has in fact been uneven and contested. Christopher P. Briem grew up in the city's Bloomfield and South Side neighborhoods watching that process.

Beyond Steel collects Briem's encyclopedic knowledge of the city during and after its steelmaking heyday.
