Zoning Guides
The following guides breakdown the tools and basic components of zoning into easily digestible pieces. We started with Pittsburgh’s interactive zoning map, which is the best starting point when launching a project that involves zoning in the city. The guide to Pittsburgh’s zoning districts is currently in progress. The City switched platforms for its online municipal code breaking our links to the zoning code. We are working on updating those. In the meantime, the City’s zoning ordinance is found here.
This guide provides an overview of Pittsburgh’s interactive zoning map. This map is the starting point for any project that requires zoning review. It identifies the zoning district for each location in Pittsburgh as well as any overlays that may add additional regulations, processes, and fees. Follow the links to each layer to learn how that layer interacts with zoning and what the additional regulations, processes, and fees may be.
This guide provides an overview of Pittsburgh’s zoning districts. After identifying a site’s zoning district, follow the link to that district to learn its basic use and density regulations as well as common challenges. We are in the process of building out this guide. Follow our blog to keep informed as we add each district’s information.
