Giant Eagle Considers Downtown Pittsburgh Location

After being courted for years, Giant Eagle finally might say yes to Downtown Pittsburgh.

Representatives for the grocery have talked to Pittsburgh and Allegheny County officials and others about opening a store in the Golden Triangle and have been scouting potential locations.

"There have been discussions, yes. They have a couple of different spots where they're looking," county Executive Rich Fitzgerald said Monday. "Yes, they're interested in Downtown."

Mr. Fitzgerald said that among the sites under consideration are the proposed Saks redevelopment on Smithfield Street and the PPG Place food court space in Market Square. But he added there are other potential locations in the mix as well.
