"Three high-profile Pittsburgh projects are among 54 statewide that have been awarded state redevelopment capital assistance grants totaling $124.7 million by the Corbett administration. The Pittsburgh-Allegheny County Sports & Exhibition Authority will receive a $5 million grant to help cover the cost of installing water, storm and sanitary sewers and other infrastructure in preparation for the redevelopment of the former Civic Arena site for housing and offices. The SEA had requested $15 million to help fund the estimated $40 million it needs for that work."
