Living in a River City

An Audio Project by Riverlife and The Saturday Light Brigade

Our three rivers are the very reason why Pittsburgh exists today. The confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers made this location extremely desirable for trading, transportation, industry and defense. But what do the rivers mean to today’s modern Pittsburghers?

SLB visited the Washington County Children’s Exposition and captured stories from children and teenagers about a variety of topics.

In this session, we took our Pittsburgh Sunnyside Elementary class on an imaginary ”field trip.” There, they were asked to use their senses and tell us: What do you like about Spring?
