Lincoln Place is a neighborhood in the 31st ward of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in the southeast. It spans two zip codes, 15207 and 15120, is represented on the Pittsburgh City Council by Douglas Shields.
Lincoln Place is home to suburban living in the city. Minutes from downtown, the neighborhood is like suburban neighborhoods found hours away from the city. Classic communities as well as brand new custom home developments can be found here, while still being surrounded by woods, greenways and greenspace.
It is not unusual to find flocks of wild turkey and deer roaming the greenways of this quiet but growing community.
In addition to ballfields and the community park, portions of Lincoln Place and New Homestead have that tucked away feel that make you forget that you are living in one of America’s most vibrant metropolises.
Part of the Great Allegheny Passage runs through Lincoln Place.
