Where did you read this?

May be wrong on this- I remember there being a sign on the fencing by the bridge but I may have mixed up URA with RAAC.

I don't think the URA does anything outside of the City, that's why I doubted it.

I’m fairly certain RIDC owns it

There is an RIDC development in Rankin. RAAC owns the bridge and much of the other land. Rivers of steels owns Carrie Furnace in swissvale (or at least they did).

Normally, property lines and ownership can be seen on the county GIS website:

But for some reason, many of the nearby parcels are missing data right now. Perhaps they changed hands recently.
