The Steel City is a common nickname for many cities that were once known for their production of large amounts of steel.

It is possible there will be new steel cities in those developing countries.

Steel City is also the name of the primary setting in Jules Verne's novel The Begum's Fortune and is the location of the Titans East headquarters in the Teen Titans animated series.
