This road was laid out as an alley in 1893 in the Midway plan, though that plan did not give it a name.[1] It was called Maeburn Road in the text of a contract between Thomas A. Watkins and the City of Pittsburgh specified in a city ordinance in 1923,[2] and this name was made official by another ordinance in 1924.[3]
