Dormont Junction Transit-Oriented Development (PRT park-and-ride site)
Description
Council voted 4-2 to enter an exclusive negotiation agreement with PRT and Pennrose to explore redeveloping the 165-space park-and-ride lot with housing. No project is approved — the ENA opens a 6-to-24-month window for due diligence and public engagement.
Impact summary
If it ever gets built, the project would add housing steps from the light rail and could upgrade the steep, inaccessible station site — but parking, rents, and the developer's reputation remain open questions for the next phase of talks.
