Fineview is one of Pittsburgh's best kept secrets! Perched behind Allegheny General Hospital on Pittsburgh’s Northside, Fineview is home to some of the best views of Downtown and the West End that Pittsburgh has to offer.

The community is within walking distance of Downtown, the Strip District, the stadiums and the East Ohio Street business district. It is just a short walk from the new Carnegie Library and Crazy Mocha on Federal Street, the National Aviary, West Park and the Andy Warhol Museum and with a dedicated bus route (the 11E) that connects to Downtown’s Cultural District, getting around is a breeze!

In addition to breathtaking views, Fineview is also home to a rich history. Originally part of Allegheny City, Fineview was once known as Nunnery Hill due to the presence of a convent in neighborhood’s southern section. It was once home to one of the few curved inclines in the world and to the locally famous streetcar line (#21) that ran from 1951 to 1966. Two civil-war era architectural gems still remain in Fineview—Heathside Cottage and the Henderson-Metz House—and are a must-see for Pittsburgh history lovers.

Fineview is a wonderful community that offers quaint, tucked away places, yards, and green space not expected in a neighborhood so close to Downtown. Fineview's hillside is under consideration to be one of Pittsburgh's newest greenways and plays host to an annual Step-a-Thon that challenges urban hikers to conquer many of neighborhood's public stairways.
