After 45 years downtown, Joseph Orlando Clothiers is a family business that’s tailored to last
This year, Joseph Orlando Clothiers hit a rare milestone for a locally owned downtown business, as it celebrated its 45-year anniversary as a premier men’s clothing destination. The store is owned by Joe Orlando, whose father, Joseph Orlando Sr., opened the namesake business in 1981 on Liberty Avenue. The store spent nearly four decades in its original location before moving to its current one on Fourth Avenue several years back and is known for its high-quality offerings and services that include custom fittings and wardrobe consultations. Orlando said as he looks to the future, he is proud to carry on the work and legacy of his father and is dedicated to remaining downtown.

USW contract talks with U.S. Steel/Cleveland-Cliffs go to break
It was a couple of short labor negotiations attempts. United Steelworkers (USW) bargaining committee members are returning home after what turned out to be short attempts at again reaching new labor contract agreements with United States Steel Corp. and Cleveland-Cliffs, Inc. “Despite the flashy graphics USS sent today, their proposal hasn't changed since Sept. 30,” the USW said in an update to USW-represented members at U.S. Steel facilities. “It still includes significant increases to your healthcare costs, including more than doubling deductibles, more than tripling ER (emergency room) copays and increasing PCP (primary care physician) specialist visit and prescription drug copays.” USW Bargaining Committee members last week had returned to Pittsburgh to again meet with the companies in an effort to resolve differences and reach new labor contracts. But the USW said Tuesday there's a lot of work yet to be done. “We gave them our counterproposal on Oct. 4 and they have yet to respond,” the USW said in the update on U.S. Steel talks. “Our Bargaining Committee is returning home today, but is ready to meet as soon as USS gets moving.” USW negotiators also said bargaining with Cleveland-Cliffs is taking a break. The USW said it has
