The site includes full information on each property, including general information, building information, images of the property, and comparables used to set the value. It is accessible from the county’s website at www.alleghenycounty.us.

More than seventy percent of Pittsburgh residents voted to approve a special tax to provide dedicated funding for the maintenance and operation of Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh. The revenue provided by this special tax is one part of a long-term sustainable funding plan and will play a large part in allowing Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh to continue to provide neighborhood-based services to city residents, including early learning programs for children and families, job search assistance and computer and Internet access.
