Hazelwood Initiative Inc. and others across the city are mourning the passing of Dave Brewton. He served as the community development corporation’s real estate director for 10 years before retiring in March of last year. He died on July 10 of metastatic prostate cancer.

Hazelwood neighbors and friends gathered online and in the second-floor classroom of Community Kitchen Pittsburgh on July 8. They heard updates on new housing in Hazelwood and learned about making their homes more energy efficient. District 5 Councilor Barb Warwick had a last-minute addition to the agenda. She alerted meeting participants to a potential problem at the recycling facility at 50 Vespucius St. in Hazelwood.
