It's one of those inexplicable Pittsburgh things that we outsiders will never understand. Like omitting the infinitive in sentences.

Considering that Summerset fought against having PAT bus service to the neighborhood, I doubt they'd want any retail there either.

I always forget about Station Square. Haven't been over there in ages.

If we're talking national Casual Dining Chains, of the Friday's or Appleby's variety, we've got The Cheesecake Factory in Southside Works and nothing else? I can't think of a single other one inside the city limits. There's a ton on McKnight, in Robinson and Monroeville but for some reason, they stay out of the city. Maybe there's some tax or zoning reason for that.
