Two Rivers, 30 Minutes for 12-31-2021
12-31-2021
Guest: Matthew Craig of the Young Preservationists Association of Pittsburgh
How Topic Discussed: What is historic preservation and how does it differ from just saving an old building? What role has the YPA taken in preserving historic buildings in McKeesport, Hazelwood and other Mon Valley communities? Why did YPA suggest that West Mifflin's now-closed Century III Mall may be a preservation opportunity? What are ways that residents can help spur conversations about re-using historic structures in their own communities?
