The Wightman School is an historic, American building that is located in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Built in 1897, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]

History and architectural features

Originally an elementary school that was named Colfax No. 5, this historic building was subsequently renamed as the Wightman School in honor of Thomas Wightman, the owner of the Thomas Wightman Glass Company.[3] The school operated from the time of its opening in 1897 until it was closed by the Pittsburgh Public Schools in June 1980.[4]

Since 1981, this 40,000-square-foot space[5] has been used as a community building, serving as the home base for several small businesses and nonprofit organizations.[3][6]
