Bricks at Schenley Plaza
Honor a loved one or see your name at Schenley Plaza by helping us personalize the walkway along the Plaza Oval and tent. For $250, you can personalize up to three lines onto a brick, and become a permanent fixture at Schenley Plaza.
Chairs at Schenley Plaza
Schenley Plaza’s movable chairs encourage informal socialization throughout the park. Movable chairs and tables mean that you can shift with the sun, or move under the Plaza tent if it starts to rain. For $175, you can personalize a plaque in honor of a loved one and have it affixed to one of the chairs.
Benches at Schenley Plaza
Relax among the beautiful blooms with a wooden bench at Schenley Plaza. Circular sections are available for $2,000 each.
Park Benches
Requests for memorial benches are managed by the City of Pittsburgh. Please contact Mike Gable, Deputy Director of Public Works at mike.gable@city.pittsburgh.pa.us.
Drinking Fountains
During the parks’ early 20th century heyday, sculptor Frank Vittor developed what is known as the dolphin drinking fountain, a distinctive aquatic-themed fountain that was used throughout the park system. Today, three original fountains remain: one at the Schenley Park Visitor Center, one in Highland Park, and one in Mellon Park. The Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy has replicated this fountain, and new models are now being installed in the parks. You can have a new fountain fabricated, installed, and personalized for $10,000.
