This alley was laid out as Warwick Alley in 1905 in a plan of lots by W. L. Curry.[1] It was renamed Warpole Alley by a city ordinance in 1912, probably to avoid confusion with Warwick Terrace in Squirrel Hill.[2] It became Warpole Way in 1914, when another ordinance changed all alleys in Pittsburgh to ways.[3]
