Celli-Flynn Brennan - Architects & Planners
Pittsburgh, PA
As project managers, CFB completed the renovation/transformation of a vintage 1906 13-story, 240,000 SF building into a 301-key Marriott Renaissance Hotel. The project included extensive exterior copper restoration and environmental remediation, as well as creation of hotel rooms, a complete restoration of the stunning marble lobby, and six conference rooms (each named for a famous native Pittsburgher).
This facility provides visitors to Pittsburgh with a serene destination while placing them in the heart of Pittsburgh’s fastest growing area. Immediately across the Allegheny River, overlooked by the hotel, are the nation’s newest professional sports venues - the new homes to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Pirates. This $44 million project can also lay claim to being the largest copper restoration project in the United States since the restoration of the Statue of Liberty. The beautiful copper dome and bay windows highlight the craftsmanship and detail of years gone by. The dome can be seen in the three-story lobby, and its exterior copper encasements can be viewed from the building's internal courtyard.
