A group of Duquesne University graduate students has been studying McKeesport's past and present --- and collecting information about the city's possible futures --- for a project they're calling "McKeesport 2013."
(Not all of the information they collected is online yet. In the interest of full disclosure: I was among the people interviewed for this project.)
One item that has been posted is a 25-minute video by Duquesne student Alyssa Kramer called "The Faint Sound of Metal Banging on Metal."
"I shared this last night and it has really generated a great response," says White Oak's Andi Luketic Cartwright, who runs the Facebook page, "McKeesport Memories." "I think she did a great job with with it!"
