ABOUT THIS BUILDING

Gateway Center is a 23-acre office park, a swath of land running from the Allegheny to the Monongahela Rivers just east of Pittsburgh's Point State Park. Point State Park and Gateway Center are products of Pittsburgh's Renaissance - the Post-World War II urban renewal of Pittsburgh's Point district.

Land clearance began in 1950.  Finished in 1953, these two 20-story and one 24-story skyscrapers were the first major buildings constructed in the massive redesign of Pittsburgh's Point.

The buildings were designed by nationally prominent architects and may meet National Register criterion C as works of architecture.

The Gateway Center component of the Pittsburgh Renaissance may be more important as one of the earliest, and arguably successful, urban renewal projects, which would make it eligible under National Register criterion A, for its association with a broad pattern of history.

Gateway Center remains a premier Pittsburgh business address.
