Sheraden is a neighborhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the United States.[2] Nearby neighbourhoods include Windgap, Chartiers City, Crafton Heights, Esplen, and Elliott.
Originally established as Sheraden Borough in 1889, it grew quickly and was annexed by the City of Pittsburgh in 1907.[citation needed] Shortly thereafter, the Public School Board of Pittsburgh opened numerous educational facilities around Sheraden, including Langley High School, completed in 1923, which replaced the former borough's Riverview High School.[citation needed]
Sheraden Park includes a swimming pool, tennis courts, ballfields, outdoor basketball courts and picnic and playground areas.[2]
