Highmark Health’s Allegheny Health Network announced plans Wednesday to build a 300,000-square-foot hospital to replace AHN’s 104-bed Canonsburg Hospital in Washington County.

Construction is expected to start in 2024 for the hospital, which will have between 50 and 100 beds and open in 2027, pending all necessary approvals. Also in the works are plans for a medical office building and potential future cancer center.

The total investment was estimated at $232 million.

Pennsylvania students with disabilities are receiving new support from the state in their transition to life after high school.

The Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry’s Office of Vocational Rehabilitation has announced a $9.9 million federal grant to support more comprehensive programming and services to help students reach their post-graduation goals.

Gov. Josh Shapiro announced Tuesday that his administration will funnel $4 million into Astrobotic Technology, a Pittsburgh-based company that plans to put its first commercial lander on the moon in the coming months.

The state’s investment will help build the company’s new North Shore building and facilitate job growth there.

After 29 years in business, Mia DeMeo's shop — a Child’s Wardrobe and Adults Too! — closed last month. The cause, she said: the city’s Smart Loading Zones program.

“My store was completely dead from the time they did that,” she said. “That's just the way it was.”

Ms. DeMeo’s issues in front of her shop on Murray Avenue began in 2021, when the city launched the MovePGH initiative, she said. Back then, the city installed scooter docks directly in front of her store, taking away a parking spot.

“In the past, people would just come down the street and go, ‘Oh, there's a parking spot there’ and pull directly up,” she said. “Then they put poles there. That was the first thing. And then when the scooters were done, nobody took the poles away.”

What should be done with Century III Mall in West Mifflin?

Some Pleasant Hills Middle School architecture students have a few ideas: a NERD center, a social center and an indoor/outdoor motocross facility.

“It’s a crime what that mall looks like,” said Michael Fratangelo, a West Jefferson Hills School District art teacher and visual artist who asked his students what should be done with the closed and decaying behemoth.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is the largest newspaper serving metropolitan Pittsburgh in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. It was established in 1786 as the Pittsburgh Gazette, making it the first newspaper published west of the Allegheny Mountains. The paper formed under its present title in 1927 from the consolidation of the Pittsburgh Gazette Times and The Pittsburgh Post. The Post-Gazette ended daily print publication in 2018 and now has two print editions per week, with online-only content the rest of the week.
