A new neighborhood is developing in the City of Monessen at the site of the former Monessen High School. This revitalized neighborhood on Knox and Reed Avenues offers affordable homes to eligible buyers.

The revitalization initiative is a cooperative project of the City of Monessen, Westmoreland Community Action, and the Westmoreland County Department of Planning and Development. The neighborhood is conveniently located within walking distance of bus stops and playgrounds and just minutes from Route 70.
