| Paper Alley (until 1914) | |
This alley was laid out in 1894 in the revised plan of Friendship Park, though that plan did not give it a name.[1] It was named Paper Alley by 1901, when a city ordinance established its grade.[2] It became Paper Way in 1914, when another ordinance changed all alleys in Pittsburgh to ways.[3]
