Transcription

History

Manchester began as a village along the shore of the river, providing supplies and services to the surrounding farms. On November 2, 1843, by act of the Pennsylvania Assembly, the borough of Manchester was created out of the surrounding Ross Township.[5] By 1868 there was a well-used wharf in the borough that needed repair.[6] On 12 March 1867, the State Legislature enacted a statute to allow Allegheny City to annex the Borough of Manchester, adding a 9 April 1867 supplement to also annex the southern portions of M'Clure and Reserve townships.[7][8] Until 1907, Manchester was a ward of Allegheny, Pennsylvania. Thereafter it is a neighborhood of Pittsburgh with boundaries that are still clearly known.

Geography

The Manchester Historic District is Pittsburgh's largest historic district under the National Register of Historic Places, preserved for its early 19th century-built Late Victorian-style houses.

Manchester was rated as one of the top 10 neighborhoods for "being close to everything" because it's walkable and has easy access to public transportation and major roadways. The Three Rivers Heritage Trail System runs along Manchester.
