Above is a draft of the “Footloose in Squirrel Hill” Walking Route designed by SHUC’s Ped-Bike Committee.
“Footloose” is a map and street directions for a 3-mile walking loop through Squirrel Hill. It begins at the Frick Environmental Center (Beechwood Blvd., near Dallas Ave.), then travels through lovely residential areas and the business corridor along Murray and Forbes Avenues.
We hope that “Footloose” can be a useful resource for residents and visitors hoping to explore our beautiful neighborhood. Please let us know if you have any feedback on “Footloose!”
This meeting will cover CMU’s plans to leave street-light banners on its campus permanently, which requires a Development Activities Meeting (DAM) and Public Art and Civic Design Commission (PACD) approval.

Preserving, Improving, and Celebrating the Quality of Life in Squirrel Hill
For over fifty years, the Coalition has been an active and important link in the community. It has served as a sounding board for new ideas, as well as a “watchdog” in the areas of public safety, education, residential quality, the business district, and parks and open space. With its focus on the quality of life in the 14th Ward, SHUC continues to monitor activities and future developments in the community through a range of standing committees.
