Downtown Walking Tour: Market Square

Sep 7, 2022 - Sep 7, 2022 | 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Market Square
Pittsburgh, PA 15222

Ever since surveyor George Woods laid out the plan of the streets of Pittsburgh in 1784, Market Square has occupied an important place Downtown—geographically, economically, and culturally. In this area where the historic architecture meets recent construction, we will see how PHLF’s work has helped to revive a Downtown core that was once threatened by extensive demolition. The tour includes residential, commercial, corporate, and hotel buildings, several of which the U.S. Green Building Council has awarded its highest certifications for environmental sustainability. Together, the sites on the tour demonstrate how the combination of historic preservation and thoughtful new development can create a livable urban environment.
