The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is seeking new funding for Downtown improvements.

The Cultural Trust's plan to revitalize Downtown includes the creation of a large lawn for festivals and performances, a cafe, an outdoor bandshell, a water play area, and other improvements to a block of Eighth Street.

Officials are seeking five-million dollars in Allegheny Regional Asset District funding to help pay for the work
