What Happened to Station Square?

from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast

Station Square has been many things: a festival marketplace ("think outdoor shopping mall with razzamatazz"), a home to megaclubs and warehouse parties, a destination for all-you-can-eat Brazilian steak. While it's nearly abandoned now, there are still some restaurants worth checking out – and hopes that new ownership could turn the tide around. City Cast contributor and Post-Gazette dining critic Hal B. Klein tried the food at all seven remaining spots and joins host Megan Harris to share who's putting out great cuisine (Kiku) and who could be trying harder (cough cough Grand Concourse). He also talks about Station Square's heyday, why it's been on the decline, and what it would take to restore the site to its former glory…or become something exciting and new.
