The Historic Arrott Building
The Industrialist is an adaptive re-use of an existing iconic 19-story Pittsburgh landmark in the heart of Pittsburgh’s Downtown for a boutique hotel. Originally built in 1902 by Pittsburgh architect Frederick Osterling, the building had been underutilized in recent decades as commercial office space but was rich with a meticulously detailed facade and lush interior finishes in many areas of the building.
Giving form to vision
The design team took great care in retaining the existing historic ornamentation, detailing, and materials, while providing repair and rehabilitation where required to maintain the building’s existing charm. Strategic full re-design of the mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems minimized interruption of views and connections to the historic aspects of the building while greatly improving the building's energy consumption.

The new hotel and the ground floor restaurant re-activate the urban streetscape and allow guests to enjoy walking to events at nearby Pittsburgh venues. The 124-room hotel honors the past and tells the story of the modern Industrialists who are shaping Pittsburgh into what it is today.
