The Pittsburgh Survey was a sociological study undertaken by the Russell Sage Foundation in 1907-1908. It describes urban conditions in Pittsburgh during the heavy industrial period of the early 1900s. The findings were published progressively in magazines such as Colliers, but were ultimately combined into six volumes between 1909 and 1914. These volumes have been made freely available online by the Russell Sage Foundation:
