| In 2005, the Gateway Clipper Fleet will be sailing the beautiful and picturesque three rivers. The clean, blue waters are framed by lush foliage and award-winning architecture that make our city one of the most scenic in the United States. However, for the first half of the 20th century, the three rivers were not a pretty sight. Pittsburgh, the "Steel City", was known for producing tons of steel year after year. While Pittsburgh's steel industry played a pivotal role in the development of the United States, it also played a role in polluting our rivers. The once beautiful rivers were now filthy. Something had to be done to restore the three rivers to their natural beauty. |
