Living Well Initiative
With the cooperation of individuals, policy makers and employers, the Living Well Initiative will help Downtowners live longer, healthier lives and attract newcomers in the future with more nutritious food choices at restaurants and grocery stores, higher levels of community engagement and better infrastructure for people to walk and bike to work.
-
Storefront Recruitment
Along with attracting entrepreneurs with art, DNA hired a specialized commercial real estate agent to help recruit businesses both regionally and from other parts of Pittsburgh and nationally. The plan is to transform downtown to a unique urban community by focusing on the type of businesses that thrive in a downtown setting.
-
Business Ambassadors
This program aims to enhance the representation of local businesses in the Downtown area, to help them connect and grow within the Golden Triangle and to advocate for employee needs and interests on both a local and corporate level.
-
Resident Ambassador
Since 2013, the Resident Ambassadors have served as advocates for the residents in their building. Reflective of all residential buildings in The Golden Triangle, they are the representative between DNA and downtown residents.
-
Green Roofs
Amidst this Summer’s intense heat wave, the perfect solution to cooling downtown’s high temperature may just lie above our heads. Green Roofs, an innovative approach to sustainable architecture, can drastically improve our quality of life and regulate temperatures.

Outdoor Programming
