Pittsburgh (/ˈpɪtsbɜːrɡ/; fonol.: Pitsburg) je grad u Commonwealthu Pennsylvania u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama, te sjedište okruga Allegheny. Broj stanovništva je 2017. godine iznosio 305.704, što grad čini 63. najvećim gradom u SAD-u.[2] Metropolitenska populacija, 2.353.045, najveća je i u dolini rijeke Ohio i u Apalačiji a druga najveća u Pennsylvaniji (poslije Philadelphije), te 26. najveća u SAD-u.
Smješten na ušću rijeka Allegheny, Monongahela i Ohio, Pittsburgh je poznat i kao ”Čelični Grad” (engleski: the Steel City) zbog više od 300 objekata povezanih s proizvodnjom čelika, te kao ”Grad Mostova” (engleski: City of Bridges) zbog toga što ima 446 mostova.[3] U gradu se nalazi 30 nebodera, dvije kose željeznice (’žičare’), predrevolucionarna utvrda i park Point State na ušću rijeka. Grad se razvio kao vitalna veza atlantske obale i Srednjeg zapada, kako su mineralima bogate planine Allegheny područje učinile poželjnim za Francusko i Britansko carstvo, Virdžinijance, pobunjenike Viski bune i napadače iz Građanskog rata u Americi.[4]
Pored čelika, Pittsburgh je predvodio i u proizvodnji aluminija, stakla, nafte, hrane, kao i u brodogradnji, sportu, transportu, računarstvu, automobilskoj industriji i elektronici.[5] Jedan dio 20. vijeka, Pittsburgh je po zaposlenosti u korporativnim sjedištima bio jedino poslije New Yorka i Chicaga; imao je najviše američkih akcionara per capita.[6] Američka deindustrijalizacija iz 1980-ih izazvala je otpuštanje s posla radnike plavog ovratnika i hiljade radnika bijelog ovratnika iz centralnog dijela grada kada su dugogodišnja svjetska sjedišta locirana u Pittsburghu premještena.[7] Ova zaostavština primorala je područje na obnovu muzeja, medicinskih centara,[8] parkova, istraživačkih centara, te raznolik kulturni distrikt.[9]
Danas, Google, Apple, Bosch, Facebook, Uber, Nokia, Autodesk, Microsoft i IBM nalaze se među 1.600 tehnoloških firmi koje generišu 20,7 milijardi u godišnjim platnim spiskovima Pittsburgha. Područje je poslužilo kao dugogodišnje sjedište federalne agencije za odbranu od sajber napada, softverski inžinjering, robotiku, energetska istraživanja i nuklearnu mornaricu.[10] U oblasti je smješteno 68 koledža i univerziteta, uključujući vodeće istraživačko-razvojne centre Univerzitet Carnegie Mellon i Univerzitet Pittsburgh.[11] Osma najveća banka u državi, osam Fortune 500 kompanija, te šest od top 300 američkih pravnih firmi ima globalno sjedište u ovom području, a RAND, BNY Mellon, Nova, FedEx, Bayer i NIOSH imaju svoja regionalna sjedišta koja su zaslužna da Pittsburgh postane šesta najbolja oblast po poslovnom rastu u SAD-u.[12]
Pittsburgh se 2015. godine našao na spisku ’jedanaest za život najpogodnijih gradova na svijetu’;[13] GLR The Economist-a pokazuje da je Pittsburgh bio prvi ili drugi za život najpogodniji grad u Sjedinjenim Državama 2005., 2009., 2011., 2012. i 2014. godine.[14] U regionu je pokrenut program LEED.[15]
