Century Building & Bike Center
Conceived of as part of the downtown Pittsburgh Cultural District revitalization program, the Century Building is the result of a development collaboration of 33 corporations, foundations, and individuals. It is the first truly mixed-income housing project (40% affordable) in downtown Pittsburgh.
A ground-level restaurant remains, and two floors above were renovated for office use. Unit types and rent-rates are mixed throughout.
Third Floor Plan
A geothermal field north of the building serves as the bike center site. Built from recycled shipping containers, the center provides secure, year-round storage with graphics that activate the street.
