![]() ![]() This is because the original plans for South Side stopped at 17th Street, but as the city grew during the Civil War, they decided to make the streets and sidewalks wider, so you get two very distinctive sections of Carson Street. The sidewalks between 8th and 17th Streets are somewhat narrower than they are from 17th street on up to 29th. Carson Street itself is mainly a two lane street with two-to-three story Romanesque and Italianate buildings lining its sides. There are three bridges that span the Monongahela River from South Side, one to downtown (Tenth Street) and two to Oakland (Birmingham and Hot Metal Street). Carson Street is conveniently located just minutes away from downtown and Oakland, our cityĆs two largest areas.
