As its first showcase project, PPC restored the 70-year old gatehouse at Reynolds Street using plans from the original architects, John Russell Pope and Innocenti and Webel. The stonework was cleaned, sidewalls rebuilt, and a new clay tile roof and historic lighting were added. The windows were unbricked and fitted with steel and black iron bars to match the originals. New cypress doors, matching the originals, were installed, reusing some of the original hardware. The surrounding landscape was also revitalized including planting many new Sugar maples, Juneberries, flowering Dogwoods, and Forsythia bushes.
To support the ongoing maintenance of the Gatehouse, please contact PPC at 412-682-7275.
