Three PNC Plaza, Mixed-use skyscraper and hotel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States.
Three PNC Plaza is a 361-foot-tall building with 23 floors in downtown Pittsburgh that houses office spaces, a Fairmont Hotel with 185 rooms, and residential condominiums. The structure integrates these different uses through a cohesive design that changed the city's skyline.
The building was completed in 2009 and was the first major skyscraper added to Pittsburgh's skyline since Highmark Tower finished in 1988. Its construction marked a turning point in the city's development and showed renewed confidence in Pittsburgh's economic future.
The building reflects Pittsburgh's shift toward modern office towers and attracts visitors through its mixed-use design that combines workspaces, lodging, and residences in one location.
The building is centrally located and easily accessible on foot, with entrances on multiple street sides for easy navigation. Visitors can explore the public lobby or use various levels as a hotel guest.
The development required demolishing thirteen existing buildings to make room for the new structure. This extensive urban reclamation made the project a significant moment in the city's renewal.
