@PittsburghDefender No you are both incorrect. The pronunciation is that of the Monongahela River, not the town. The town is pronounced HELLA, and the river and incline are pronounced HEILA
I grew up just east of here in Export, Pa. I rode this incline many times. My Grandmother grew up on Mt. Washington in 1880's, she was 104 when she passed away in 1990.

It is pronounced Mononga-HELL-a, not Mononga-HEE-la. I live in Monongahela, a small town just south of pittsburgh.
