  • TOPIC: Corey O’Connor, Mayor of Pittsburgh Talks About His Priorities
    Jan 19 2026
    Pittsburgh is in a moment right now—big questions, big expectations, and a whole lot of people wondering what comes next. Because no matter what neighborhood you call home… you feel it. In the streets you drive every day. The bills you pay every month. The safety you think about when your kids walk out the door. The growth you want to believe in… without getting priced out of the city you love. And at the center of it all is leadership.

    Today, we’re sitting down with Pittsburgh Mayor Corey O’Connor—talking about priorities, plans, and the pressure that comes with running a city that’s proud, passionate, and always watching.

    We’ll cover the issues that matter most: public safety, infrastructure, housing, jobs, city services… and what his administration wants to tackle first.
