We had an absolute blast attending the Pennsylvania Solar Center's 5th Annual Solar Soiree, located at the Energy Innovation Center.🌞 More than just a fantastic evening of networking and policy updates, this annual event serves a vital purpose: raising critical funds to expand sustainable energy access and infrastructure across western Pennsylvania.

For Pittsburgh Gateways Corporation, the evening was doubly special. We were incredibly honored to receive the Lodestar Award, a recognition given to graduates of the GET Solar program who are actively leading the region by integrating solar technology into their operations.🏆

The night concluded on the roof of the Energy Innovation Center, where attendees took a firsthand tour of our newly unveiled 291-kilowatt rooftop solar array. Projects like these prove that environmental responsibility and local economic growth go hand in hand.

Thank you to the Pennsylvania Solar Center for an inspiring event, and congratulations to our fellow award winners, Neighborhood North Museum of Play and Whitehall Borough, for their commitment to our community's future.

Pittsburgh Gateways Corporation and the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown (Pitt-Johnstown), together with regional industry partners, today launched a first-of-its-kind drone-based bridge inspection initiative at the FutureReady Innovation Center. The center is located in the building formerly known as the Jupiter Building in downtown Johnstown.

The initiative brings together Pitt-Johnstown, Pittsburgh Gateways Corporation, JWF Industries, Aerium, Mission Critical Solutions LLC, Horizon Aerobotics Inc., and Mash Engineering in a collaborative effort to develop next-generation methods for bridge inspection using unmanned aerial systems (UAS), LiDAR applications, and related data tools. The project creates new opportunities for students to gain hands-on technical training tied directly to employer needs in engineering, infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing.

Funding for this first FutureReady Innovation Center training program was provided by the Bill Polacek dedicated FutureReady Fund, the Community Foundation for the Alleghenies , the 1889 Foundation INC, and the Richard King Mellon Foundation.

Congratulations to the Center for Metal Arts and Patrick Quinn on receiving the Cultural Affairs Award at this year's Cambria Regional Chamber of Commerce Annual Dinner!

Housed in a historic steel mill that once belonged to the Cambria Iron Company, and currently undergoing a major renovation, the Center for Metal Arts is a fitting tribute to the region's industrial legacy — and a vibrant hub for the craft that legacy made possible.

Pittsburgh Gateways Corporation serves as the developer and owners representative for the Center for Metal Arts.

Special thanks to Sue Mann, 1889 FOUNDATION INC, Mike Kane, Angie Berzonski and Community Foundation for the Alleghenies for their incredible and long-term support. They are true champions of this work whose generosity and dedication have made all the difference.
