This veritable museum of architecture is part of what makes Pittsburgh unique; it also allows us to understand the relationship between our history and our built environment. In a vigorous tour of architectural landmarks, spectacular interiors, and significant urban spaces, you will learn how Pittsburgh developed from a military outpost in the 18th century into the 21st-century city that has been lauded for its beauty, walkability, and livability. The tour also shows how historic buildings have been preserved and maintain for contemporary uses, manifesting the resilience and ingenuity that have defined Pittsburgh since its beginning.
