  • WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Vol
    WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Vol. 9; No. 3 JULY, 1926 Price 75 Cents OLD HOUSES AND ESTATES INPITTSBURGH* ANNIECLARK MILLER The modern house is largely the common denominator of an architect and an interior decorator. Early habitations, whether of logs or stone, were of the same pattern as the builder and these houses when found today are visible reminders of the men of their period—and the hardy, diligent, sober minded lives they led. There are alas! too few remaining in Pittsburgh. We have been destructive and wasteful. We neglect our family records and destroy our venerable habitations but strangers tell us that the ancient foundations still stand, for we con- tinue to be the same church-going, Sabbath-keeping, hard-— working folk. That the old names endure, we know: Ir- win's rope rigged Perry's fleet; Shoenberger's iron was of the highest quality; and Bakewell's glass is still treasured by collectors. Pittsburgh's most ancient house was builded in 1764, and the destruction of this house has been sought since the day of the Red Man. No savage or civilized enemy ever re- garded that citadel with more jealous eye than our own enterprising Pennsylvania Company and it is a pleasure for a woman to record that it was Pittsburgh's "house- keepers/' not Pittsburgh's "city builders" that averted destruction. No description of this ancient house is needed for an Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania, but it must be noted as we pass that the Old Block House, refuge and for- tification, has also served as dwelling-house.
