Last Friday, we reported that the City of Pittsburgh’s Bureau of Building Inspection (BBI) was set to go before the Historic Review Commission (HRC) on July 2 for permission to demolish the vacant building at 1244 Buena Vista Street. The item was subsequently pulled from the HRC meeting agenda.

The building located at 1244 Buena Vista Street (corner of Buena Vista and North Taylor Avenue) has been unoccupied for years. It has fallen into disrepair and poses a public safety hazard.
