City officials marked the beginning of the demolition of the long-vacant Berg Place housing complex along Brownsville Road in Pittsburgh’s Carrick neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Crews on Tuesday started tearing down the seven-building complex, which has been condemned and deteriorating for over a decade.<\/p>\n
