About Regent Square
We get this question a lot... "Where is Regent Square, and what streets make up the boundary?"
As defined in the RSCA bylaws, Regent Square refers to the group of neighborhoods adjacent to the Hutchinson-Braddock business district, including parts of Pittsburgh, Wilkinsburg, Swissvale, and Edgewood. Regent Square is best defined by several street or landmark borders:
Northern border: Forbes Avenue
Eastern border: Pennwood Avenue Busway viaduct in Edgewood and Wilkinsburg
Southern border: Parkway East (I376)
Western border: Frick Park
Traffic Study
In 2002 the Regent Square Civic Association secured a small grant with the help of the Allegheny County Executive and the City of Pittsburgh to perform a traffic study and make general recommendations for the South Braddock corridor in Regent Square. The study was professionally done by Vollmer Associates for the Civic Association. While this study is dated its underlying recommendations and data bout the character and traffic of Regent Square still has some currency with the Regent Square Neighborhood.
