On June 10, the History Society enjoyed a memorable evening at the historic Union Trust Building for From Arcade to Empire: A Tour and History of the Union Trust Building.
Guests explored remarkable spaces rarely open to the public, enjoyed a reception with food and bar service catered by Ritual House, a Union Trust Building tenant, and learned about the building’s rich history and Pittsburgh’s financial and industrial legacy through presentations by Property Manager Steven Kasunich and historian Mark Samber.
We extend our sincere thanks to The Davis Companies and the Union Trust Building for sponsoring the evening; Assistant Property Manager Jeanette Evans for coordinating the event and conducting tours; Lead Engineer Dan Marshall and Assistant Lead Engineer Buzz McWhirter for sharing their expertise and helping bring the building’s history to life.
