PITTSBURGH — Westinghouse Pond in Schenley Park is undergoing a one-month maintenance project.
The pond will be drained and remain empty while work is being performed.
“I don’t want residents to be alarmed when they see the empty pond. It’s necessary work by (Department of Public Works) crews to the upkeep of such an important historic monument and space,” said Department of Public Works Director Chris Hornstein.
In 2011, the Westinghouse Memorial was renovated as part of a partnership between Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy and the City of Pittsburgh. During this time, the lily pond was re-established along with a renewed memorial sculpture, native plant life, nighttime lighting and storm-water management.
