Session Two of our Steel City Big Pour has sold out and less than thirty-five (35) tickets are left for Session One.  We expect this event to sell out very shortly so don't delay if you want to go... buy your tickets now. 

For everyone attending, please remember:

  • This is a 21 and over event.  Even designated drivers must be 21 or older.
  • Please use public transportation or ride your bike.  A bike valet will be available.
  • We'll begin processing ticket holders thirty minutes prior to opening each Session, so please arrive early so we can get you into the event quickly.
  • We'll have some Steel City Big Pour items such as t-shirts and raffle tickets for sale... so bring cash!

Purchase tickets through ProArts Tickets by calling 412-394-3353.  Tickets are no longer being sold through the ProArts website.  Check out this article about this year's upcoming Big Pour.

Thank you to our wonderful SPONSORS for their invaluable support of this event.

The CJ Buzz

The acre of commercial 18" x 18" carpet squares we mentioned a couple of weeks ago will start arriving late afternoon this coming Monday September 8th.

Because of our upcoming Steel City Big Pour event, CJ is currently not storing any purchased items.  Onsite storage options will resume on Monday September 15th.  We are sorry for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Last month, CJ broke another record and had our busiest month ever with approximately 2,800 sales.  The previous record was set just the month prior with over 2,500 sales.  Construction Junction is growing and we love watching it happen.
