VOANews: Pittsburgh's Renewal Draws a New Wave of Immigrants By Kane Farabaugh Pittsburgh, 24 September 2009
Over the past 50 years, however, heavy industry has been leaving Pittsburgh, the "Steel City", along with tens of thousands of jobs. But over time Pittsburgh essentially "reinvented" itself, and the city is now best known for high-technology enterprises, medical specialties, banks and universities. That transformation has prompted a new wave of immigrants, this time including many from south Asia. Families originally from India now are one of Pittsburgh's largest ethnic communities, and they are thriving.
