{CAPTION}

 Explore the Schenley Farms National-Register Historic District in Oakland with docents from PHLF. Hear how real estate developer Franklin Nicola (1860-1938) realized his dream of creating an example of the “City Beautiful” ideal. Where cows grazed peacefully on a steep Oakland hillside, Nicola saw grand boulevards and elegant homes, hotels, and clubs. We’ll walk along the quiet residential streets of Schenley Farms, where Nicola’s company developed a high-quality residential community with the latest modern conveniences. 
 
 Participants will take a brief look inside Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hall & Museum and William Pitt Union (originally, the Hotel Schenley). This tour will reveal the power of historic preservation, since many historic buildings have been sensitively repurposed for new uses. 
 
Paid reservations by Tuesday, April 17, 2018.
Fee: members $10; non-members $35 (includes a one-year complimentary membership in PHLF)

As tens of thousands struggle with addiction to ever-more-potent narcotics, we'll bring together the leaders who are marshaling resources, and the problem-solvers who know the city's hardest-hit streets. 
 
On April 19, Governor Wolf and local leaders will be discussing ways to address the opioid epidemic in our region at Heinz Field. Following the forum, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette will host a roundtable that includes local individuals working towards solutions from recovery, treatment, and housing communities.
