Sauer Buildings Historic District, Historic district in Aspinwall, United States.
The Sauer Buildings Historic District spans from 607 to 717 Center Avenue, featuring a collection of residential structures built with buff brick and various architectural elements.
German architect Frederick C. Sauer developed this complex between 1898 and 1942, starting with his family residence and gradually adding rental properties to the hillside tract.
The district represents architectural innovation through its combination of Victorian oriels, Colonial Revival elements, and Medieval Revival features across multiple residential buildings.
Located in Allegheny County with postal code 15215, the district contains nine buildings that currently function as rental housing units requiring regular maintenance.
The Heidelberg apartment building, converted from a chicken coop between 1928 and 1930, demonstrates Sauer's experimental approach to architectural transformation.
