City of Pittsburgh Historic Designation for Mellon Park

A recent article in TRIB LIVE reported on the anticipated designation by the City of Pittsburgh of Mellon Park as an historic site.

“People were surprised it had no protections whatsoever,” said Elizabeth Seamans, president of Friends of Mellon Park. Her organization helped work through the process of attaining the designation….“The whole park is a work of art,” Seamans said. “It’s a treasure for the whole city and people from far and wide enjoy it.”
