Heinz History Center (1212 Smallman St., Pittsburgh, PA 15222) was built in 1898 as the headquarters and main warehouse of the Chautauqua Lake Ice Company. This seven-story structure was designed by Frederick Osterling. The company served the residential population of Pittsburgh and also iced railroad cars leaving the Strip District filled with produce. In 1996 the warehouse was renovated by the Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania for the Senator John Heinz Pittsburgh Regional History Center. The facility offers exhibits and interactive programs for the public to learn and enjoy the history of Western Pennsylvania.
