The South Shore is an industrial neighborhood, home to several warehouses. The neighborhood is primarily made-up of the popular Station Square, a mixed-use historic preservation development of the former Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Rail Road and surrounding areas, conceptualized by Arthur P. Ziegler, Jr. one of the founding national leaders of historic preservation in the United States, and President of the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation.

The population of the South Shore was just 56 in the 2000 census.cite paper
