PG&H Store in Downtown Pittsburgh Closes

Friday, December 23, 2022

In 2018, Bridgeway Capital’s Creative Business Accelerator (CBA) and the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership (PDP) began a dynamic collaboration. Our goal was to help foster high-quality retail activity downtown while creating sales opportunities for regional makers. Out of this goal, PG&H was born. A place and a platform that would help Pittsburgh connect (and support) the maker economy while promoting local makers nationally.

After five years, two locations, and over $200,000 in sales to regional makers, the PDP will close the flagship PG&H Store in 2023. The news is bittersweet. While we are saddened to see such a beautiful retail space leave, the growth of enterprises like love, Pittsburgh and The Store at Contemporary Craft. For the foreseeable future, the CBA will continue to operate the PG&H website as an attractive directory for over 150 regional makers sharing their wares and stories worldwide.
