The City of Pittsburg is located just a short BART ride from San Francisco, in eastern Contra Costa County, between the Deltas waters and the foot of Mount Diablo.

In June, BART announced its “Fleet of the Future” train car would be built in the transit agency’s backyard of Pittsburg, CA – a city that houses two stations, allowing prospective Bombardier employees to ride the cars they build to work.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 established Opportunity Zones to provide tax incentives for investment in designated areas.

The Northern Waterfront Economic Development Initiative was created to revitalize the northern waterfront of Contra Costa County stretching along San Pablo Bay, the Carquinez Strait and into the Delta. In January 2019, a Strategic Action Plan was approved by the County Board of Supervisors in order to give life to the initiative.
