Laclede Street

From Pittsburgh Streets
Laclede Street
Neighborhood Mount Washington
Laclede Avenue (until 1910)

This street was laid out as Laclede Avenue in 1903 in the Grandview plan by Clifford B. Harmon.[1] It was changed to Laclede Street (perhaps unintentionally) by a city ordinance in 1910 that officially established the names of all streets in Pittsburgh.[2]
