Some end up here in the tech sector, and they put the bravest face on it they can, but the ones that are here often want out and are looking for every opportunity to get out.My brother came here in the late 90s to attend CMU and he passed on the same hopeful stories back then - Pittsburgh is changing, Pittsburgh is reinventing itself, Pittsburgh is become new and fresh and different, Pittsburgh will become a tech hub...I've heard over twenty years of broken promises like that, and so I'm not putting any money on the explosive potential of the tech industry to change everything in the region overnight.

Freshly painted looks nice.

HI Drew, When I go through the apartment with my tenant to sign the lease I open up a fresh pack of batteries and put them in. 

Once all the concrete is out, start fresh with modern backer board. 

Why not just have something built fresh where I can critique every detail of the building on its way up rather than sitting waiting for a deal that has downsides to it wich u won't be 100% satisfied with.

The new wood could definitely use to be painted white and I will probably do that once the weather warms up but I do think the fresh paint will make the rest of the garage look even worse!  

The family just wants a fresh start as soon as possible.

No room for mistakes or do-overs (although it is easier to hide a newly dead carpenter or electrician who crossed me under a freshly poured back patio).

I am looking for a web site that will list apartment buildings that are either in foreclosure or fresh REO nationwide.

In my area good tenants expect updated even freshly renovated houses.
