Jeannette is home to the Bushy Run Battlefield, and it was on these 200 acres that Colonel Henry Boquet determined the fate of Fort Pitt. Spoiler alert: He saved it! Today this battlefield serves as an important recreation area for the city, offering residents a fascinating museum, winding nature trails, shady picnic areas, and more.
Considered a suburb of Pittsburgh, Jeannette is a city in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. A fun fact: the city was named after a founding father's wife! Jeannette is over 125 years old, and at one time was known as "The Glass city." Why, you ask? Well, Jeannette's main manufacturing industries back in its infancy were glass plants. Jeannette cranked out plate glass windows, milk bottles, and decorative pieces like you wouldn't believe and at one time manufactured around 80% of the country's glass! This city is still going strong, with a population just shy of 10,000 residents, according to the 2010 census. View Jeannette City Guide
