Description
The North Side Market House (also called the Allegheny Market House) was built in 1863. It was built during a revival period of medieval-style architecture, specifically the Romanesque and Renaissance styles. On the inside of the building the atmosphere was light and airy, with iron columns supporting wooden arches and rafters. It was demolished in 1965 as part of a planned urban redevelopment of Allegheny Center and the central North Side neighborhood of Pittsburgh. It was replaced by an apartment high-rise and Allegheny Center Mall.
