A. Once Pennsylvania’s largest brewery and home to the “Prince of Pilsner,” Duquesne Brewery in the South Side Flats closed in 1972 and remained vacant until a group of artists began working, and sometimes living, in the structure during the 1980s. The artists organized as a formal cooperative in 1991, the Brew House Association (BHA), and over the decades, BHA expanded the studio/ living spaces within the building and developed group workspaces and galleries on the ground floor to support their collective vision. In 2001, BHA purchased the property from the City of Pittsburgh with the understanding that the Brew House would become an authentic asset for Pittsburgh’s artist community. At over 114,000 square feet, the building, though occupied, required numerous improvements to bring it up to current building standards, to make it energy efficient, to make it fully accessible and to preserve it as an iconic piece of Pittsburgh’s history.
Today, the South Side is a vibrant, energetic, and eclectic community in which to live, work and play. The re-introduction of the Brew House reinforces the lasting and positive impact of the Brew House Association within the Pittsburgh’s artist community while also addressing the continual demand for high-quality, affordable housing in the city. The result is a truly unique development that preserves the mission of the BHA for years to come.
