• A privately constructed 445-space, six-floor public parking garage, with approximately 72 spaces reserved for building residents.
• A public courtyard and greenspace with retail and entertainment components.

“Bringing housing to the North Shore has long been one of my goals, along with introducing new, fan-friendly and public greenspaces to the area. I want to thank the Pirates and Steelers for their hard work with us on this,” Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto said in a statement.

“This is a great day for our fans, our city and the continued success of the revitalization of the North Shore," Pirates owner Bob Nutting said. “In addition to the needed residential units and parking, the new public green space will give our fans a great area for gathering and entertainment on-game days, as well as enhance the entertainment options available to visitors year-round.”

The city also announced an extension of the redevelopment deadline for Lot 2 behind Stage AE through 2024. 2024. The agreement also creates a final partnership agreement on surface parking spots for gameday activities through the end of the stadium leases.
