PITTSBURGH — One of Pittsburgh’s biggest hospitals is growing, but the move is causing some controversy.
Residents of the North Side had a chance to voice their concerns about Allegheny General Hospital’s plan to expand at Wednesday’s council meeting.
Some spoke of their concerns, such as noise from the helicopter pad, while others say the hospital’s expansion is a positive move.
One resident even suggested the hospital assist those who want to relocate.
AGH says they will work to resolve public concerns, like noise, traffic and parking.
The expansion includes the construction of a new neuroscience center. Hospital officials tell us the neuroscience building will offer valet for patients.
Councilman Bobby Wilson said the hospital expansion offers benefits, but he wants to be mindful of the residents’ quality of life.
