19世纪，阿勒格尼河成为匹兹堡工业的发源地。充满活力的河滨地区住着钢铁厂，并为煤炭和钢铁的运输提供了便利-无论是通过水还是铁路。在这些衰落的工业之后，匹兹堡今天寻求改变他们的河岸和城市的特性。佐佐木领导着Allegheny河边绿色林荫大道(ARGB)的研究，这项研究的目的是将阿勒格尼河滨6.5英里的区域从市中心改造到城市边缘。该项目将把邻近地区与河边连接起来，并将匹兹堡重新设想为一个河流城市。该项目的重点是五项任务：将通勤铁路与Allegheny山谷铁路货运走廊以及多用途道路结合起来；围绕拟议的车站区域和车站设计规划车站区域；建立一个新的河岸开放空间系统，包括接入点、生境和生态改善以及河岸稳定；让匹兹堡社区参与这一进程的公众外联；以及总体项目管理。

In the 1800s, the Allegheny River became the birthplace of industry for Pittsburgh. The filled riverfronts housed steel mills, and accommodated transport—both via water and rail—of coal and steel. In the wake of these declining industries, Pittsburgh today seeks to transform their riverfronts and the identity of the city. Sasaki is leading the Allegheny Riverfront Green Boulevard (ARGB) study, an initiative to transform 6.5 miles of the Allegheny Riverfront from downtown to the city limit. The project will connect neighborhoods to the riverfront, and reimagine Pittsburg as a river city. The project is focused on five tasks: integration of a commuter rail into the Allegheny Valley Railroad freight corridor along with a multi-use path; station area planning around the proposed station areas and station design; creation of a new riverfront open space system with access points, habitat and ecological enhancements, and riverbank stabilization; public outreach to engage the Pittsburgh community in this process; and overall project management.

美国住房和城市发展部(HUD)的可居住性原则组织了Allegheny河边绿色大道研究，该研究将交通、土地利用、开放空间、生态和可持续发展规划联系起来。佐佐木的开放空间计划确定了从一条平行小径进入河流的途径，以及通过优先绿色街道从周边社区进入河流的途径。该计划确定了一条多用途的自行车道，整合到Allegheny山谷铁路的右车道，并包括三个街区的景观概念规划。开放空间规划的关键组成部分是稳定河岸，创造河岸生境，以及将雨水与流入河流的众多综合下水道分离开来。作为最后一次努力的一部分，三条埋藏的溪流正在被重新创造为再生的雨水输送流。

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Livability Principles organize the Allegheny Riverfront Green Boulevard study, which link transportation, land use, open space, ecology, and sustainable development planning. Sasaki’s open space plan identifies access to the river from a parallel trail, as well as from surrounding neighborhoods via priority green streets. The plan identifies a multi-use bike path integrated into the Allegheny Valley Railroad right of way and includes landscape concept plans for three neighborhoods. Key components of the open space plan are stabilization of the riverbank, creation of riparian habitat, and separation of stormwater from the numerous combined sewers that flow into the river. As part of this last effort, three buried streams are being re-created as regenerative stormwater conveyance streams.

通勤铁路被并入一条将在夜间运行的活跃的货运铁路。该铁路将利用柴油多单元(DMU)技术。走廊的最后一英里与东公交BRT走廊混合，连接通勤铁路和市中心。一个新的快速公交车站改善了东巴士的换乘。佐佐木研究小组也在研究其他改善行动能力的方法，例如连接整个城市的公共汽车和铁路，以及整个研究区域内的其他行人、自行车和卡车的改进。

The commuter rail is incorporated into an active freight rail that will operate at night. The rail will utilize Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) technology. The final mile of the corridor is mixed with the East Busway BRT corridor, linking the commuter rail with downtown. A new BRT station improves transfers to the East Busway. The Sasaki team is also looking at other mobility improvements, such as links to bus and rail throughout the city, and other pedestrian, bike, and truck improvements within the entire study area.

佐佐木小组正在研究多达六个车站区域，重点是劳伦斯维尔站-这是前赫本斯托尔钢厂的所在地，目前是卡内基梅隆大学国家机器人工程中心的所在地。一些小型科技初创企业在该地区的孵化器空间内开始增加附近地区的住房需求。佐佐木正与社区合作，制定车站区域交通导向发展(TOD)计划，以支持社区发展。

The Sasaki team is studying up to six station areas, and is focused on the Lawrenceville station—the site of the former Hepenstall steel mill and current home to the Carnegie Mellon University National Robotics Engineering Center. A number of small tech start-ups in incubator spaces in the site area are starting to increase housing demand in the neighborhood. Sasaki is working with the community on a station area Transportation Oriented Development (TOD) plan to support the neighborhood development.
