PITTSBURGH — Good news for Pittsburgh's Jazz music lovers who, perhaps, have long felt like a lover scorned when the James Street Gastropub & Speakeasy closed its doors over four years ago.

This group fronted some serious dough and purchased the property in 2018 and is investing over $5 million total to revitalize the property. The fat stack provided by the URA’s Pittsburgh Business Fund will assist in funding gaps stemming from the pandemic. Â
