ABOUT PRESERVATION PITTSBURGH
Preservation Pittsburgh is a non-profit advocacy group dedicated to preserving our region's historic, architectural, cultural, and environmental heritage. Our members, who include professional preservationists, architects, historians, artists, and other neighbors, are united by their concern that the future of Pittsburgh's irreplaceable architectural and landscape treasures are in jeopardy. Our primary goal is to promote the importance of preservation issues in the deliberations and decisions of public officials, private groups, developers and the general public.
