2008 - MONASTERY STREET PARK - PITTSBURGH, PA

In the summer of 2008, Southside’s Monastery Street Park received an artistic new addition. Located on the Southside Slopes, Monastery Street Park is a small plot of land overlooking Downtown Pittsburgh and bustling Carson Street. We are pleased to have worked directly with Peter Kreuthmeier of Pittsburgh-based Loysen + Kreuthmeier Architects to construct and install an abstract representation of the South Side Slopes. Constructed of Cor-Ten Steel, the piece will develop a natural patina over time. The art piece itself is a topological map of the city, with through cuts and protruding steel planes depicting houses, rivers, and roads. Backlit with linear LED fixtures, the 50 feet of steel artwork glows at night greeting passers as they ascend the slopes.
