Reo Way

From Pittsburgh Streets
Reo Way
Neighborhood Larimer

This alley runs (or ran) from Regis Way to Thompson Street between Joseph Street and Hooker Street.[1] It was laid out in 1901 in the Ball Park plan of lots, though that plan did not give it a name.[2] It remained unnamed until 1914, when a city ordinance named it Reo Way.[3]
