Remember when you thought Pittsburgh City Paper was gone for good?
So listen— remember back over New Year's when everyone was talkin' about how the *City Paper* was shuttin' down? Man, for a hot minute there, it felt like a little piece of the Burgh's soul just up and left. You think about all the times yinz grabbed a copy from a newsstand in the Strip District before hittin' Primanti's for a sandwich, or when you were lookin' up what band was playin' at Club Cafe in the South Side, n'at. It was always there, tellin' us what was goin' on, who was sayin' what, and givin' a voice to all the weird, wonderful stuff that makes this city *this city*.
But here's what's wild— they're BACK! For real! Like, they just popped up again, talkin' about how they were only gone for a "very, very briefly" moment. It's like that old steel town spirit, right? You get knocked down, you get back up. It just goes to show ya, you can't keep a good Pittsburgher—or a good Pittsburgh institution—down for long. It's just proof that there's a hunger for that local, sometimes a little nebby, coverage of what's happenin' in our neighborhoods, from Polish Hill to Squirrel Hill. That's the Burgh, yinz — steel town heart, no matter what.
