Episode Details

Pittsburgh invests heavily in downtown revitalization ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, aiming to attract 500,000 to 700,000 fans. However, this push for progress threatens to displace homeless individuals, who face potential displacement due to road closures and crowds. The city plans to subsidize pop-ups and establish a triage center, while Steelers executives contribute to homeless aid and police patrols. Economic projections estimate a significant boost post-event, but organizers must balance short-term gains with long-term support for those still navigating homelessness.
