Incorporated as a borough in 1905, Beechview merged into the City of Pittsburgh in 1909. Despite Beechview's hilly terrain, its streets follow a grid pattern, resulting in some extremely steep roads. This includes Canton Avenue, the steepest street in the world, at a 37% grade. "Our hills define us"!
