This just sparked a question to myself. While I have broader thoughts on this, here is how building permits in Pittsburgh (city) compare to Cleveland (city) over the last 15 years. Note Cleveland is 360K population (20% > Pittsburgh btw). Just one bit of data for sure, but fwiw

Spoke to real estate developer yesterday (and I am only sharing because I have heard this from several sources) and he said word among developers with experience in multiple cities is that Pittsburgh has one of the most arduous permitting processes of them all

Danielle Gensler@DanielleGensler19 May 2025
This election is too important to sit out. I want a mayor who is for the community, not the landlords and developers. That's why I am voting for @gainey_ed on Tuesday May 20th. #GaineyForMayor

Under the Gainey administration, Pgh has seen more affordable housing built than any mayoral administration in the last twenty years! Mayor Gainey = More Housing
Ed Gainey@gainey_ed2 Apr 2025
Councilwoman @DebGrossPGH supports my re-election because we've "rebuilt playgrounds, bridges, sidewalks, and public assets that had languished for decades." As Deb says, "If you want a Mayor who will stand up to profiteers and fight for the people, Vote Ed Gainey!"
District 7 Councilwoman Deb Gross endorses Ed Gainey for re-election “Mayor Gainey has rebuilt playgrounds, bridges, sidewalks, and public assets that had languished for decades. In the last three years we have seen more units of affordable housing built than any administration in the last twenty years. Ed Gainey protects public assets and invests our tax dollars in everyday Pittsburghers. If you want a Mayor who will stand up to profiteers and fight for the people, Vote Ed Gainey.” Visit Gaineyformayor.com to join us today
