Businesses blossoming in Steel Valley. The consulting firm Ex3 Matters, founded by John Hobart, will open at the corner of McClure Street and E. Eighth Avenue in Homestead. Within the next several weeks, the Stay Tuned Distillery is due to open at Ravine Street and E. Eighth Avenue in Munhall and a chocolate manufacturing company, TAGH Products, is due to open at 406 E. Eight Avenue in Munhall. Starrett listed the Dorothy 6 Blast Furnace Café at 244 E. Eighth Avenue in Homestead as one of the businesses with a planned opening on the horizon. Dorothy 6 co-founder Olivia Crocker said her business already is offering catering services, but that she and business partner Tom Kazar need an occupancy permit before they can open as a restaurant. Crocker said she expects that will happen within the next few weeks. When it does open, she said, it will serve what some would call American cuisine but in her opinion is “really just good Pittsburgh food.” Carole DeAngelo, who manages the Waterfront for M & J Wilkow and its ownership partner BIG Shopping Centers USA, said the new restaurant Burgatory is being built in the shopping center and is due to open in February. DeAngelo said the boutique Charming Charlie recently opened in the Waterfront, and Crunch Fitness Center will open its doors soon in the top half of the former Filenes Basement building. DeAngelo said the bottom portion of the building will be divided into two spaces and that an announcement is expected within the next month about the tenants. DeAngelo said there is a tenant targeted for the vacant Dress Barn shop and that a Hometown Sports outlet is opening next month in the Town Center section of the complex.
