South Side Slopes is a neighborhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania`s South Side area. The neighborhood comprises the hills from the South Side Flats neighborhood along the Monongahela River from the Liberty Bridge (west) to beyond Josephine Street (east).

In many parts of the South Side Slopes, homes offer panoramic views of the city skyline that span the distance from beyond McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, to Homestead, Pennsylvania. Many homes are perched well above the city skyline. This neighborhood provides access to the South Side Flats by various means, including the many public staircases.

Every autumn the South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association (SSSNA) hosts its annual `StepTrek`, where participants travel over the various public step streets. Pittsburgh, like many cities in the United States built on hillsides, classifies public staircases as streets. The hills being steep, staircases allowed access to the different parts of the slopes neighborhood. The SSSNA hopes to maintain the staircases as a legacy of its history as a mining town.

The Mission Street steps between Oakley Street and Barry Street in addition to the top of Yard Way off Pius St. offer views of the South Side Flats neighborhood and downtown Pittsburgh. These public staircases are sometimes called paper streets, being pedestrian streets shown on City maps but not accessible by vehicles.

South Side Park is a City Park with hiking trails, a small orchard patch and views of the City of Pittsburgh skyline. It is home to many species of birds, small animals and deer. It contains a small wetlands area, complete with cattails and many species of wildlife. Black locust trees form a mature canopy over the park. It also includes a community garden at the former Bandi Schaum baseball field on the lower plateau off Mission Street across from the Mission Street water pumping station.

A cor-ten sculpture representing the neighborhood`s topography and buildings is on display in the garden of Paul of the Cross Monastery.

There is an apartment below this rental. There is no shared space. It is completely separate.

This is a spotless, 2 floor apt, 2nd and 3rd story on the slopes overlooking the Southside. The 2nd story has an excellent eat in kitchen with a bonus Air Fryer. The furniture throughout is sturdy and clean, the beds and linens very nice. Roku TVs everywhere you look! Outside the designated parking space along side the house was great for unloading the car and felt secure. The back deck was our place for morning coffee. The view is in the front through the bedroom windows. There are steps with a good bannister to enter the apt in the back and another inside flight to go to the 3rd floor bedroom suite. It's a classic Pittsburgh hill house in that regard. This is a residential area, but we walked up to the fantastic Hilltop Coffee shop and had an easy drive down the hill to 2 large grocery stores and the lively Carson Street action. Check in was keyless which was very smooth. Communication with one of the owners, Sarah was friendly, prompt and helpful. Sarah and Robert have clearly done a lot of work to modernize this apt (electric outlets are everywhere) and they care that you have a good experience. Hope to stay here again when we are back in town to visit family.

Great experience

Location is great for accessing the city & lots of restaurants. The hosts communicate very well and the house has everything you need. It is a quiet neighborhood, but be prepared for steep alley type streets. It is very nice that the property has a driveway for 2 cars.
