Zeus Alley was laid out in a plan subdividing the estate of Phebe A. Phillips, recorded in 1896.[1][2] It became Zeus Way in 1914, when a city ordinance changed all alleys in Pittsburgh to ways.[3] However, the streets and alleys in this plan were never built or opened, and they were all vacated by another ordinance in 1918.[4]
