From abstract: "This architectural inventory for the City of Pittsburgh (Planning Sector 5: Carrick Neighborhood) is in partial fulfillment of Preserve Policy 1.2, to Identify and Designate Additional Historic Structures, Districts, Sites, and Objects (City of Pittsburgh Cultural Heritage Plan, 2012). This project is the fourth phase of a larger undertaking which aims to ultimately complete the architectural survey for all of Pittsburgh’s Planning Sectors. The scope of this project provided for the partial completion of Pittsburgh’s Carrick Neighborhood in Planning Sector 5. This Report of Findings and Recommendations presents survey results and recommendations. Recommendations pertain to 1) the eligibility of various resources for National Register listing; 2) the use of survey data by the City of Pittsburgh; 3) resources prioritized for intensive level survey; and 4) a review of this survey effort’s methodology, with emphasis on lessons learned and recommended modifications for future surveys. All previously surveyed resources within Carrick were field checked and an updated survey record was prepared. Project historians conducted a reconnaissance-level survey in the Carrick neighborhood and collected data for the entire Brownsville Road corridor as well as selected parcels that were deemed of interest in relation to the historical development of the neighborhood or because they were part of groupings of parcels with high levels of architectural integrity." Project funding was provided in part by a 2015 Historic Preservation Fund grant to the City of Pittsburgh (project number PA-15-011) administered by the Pennsylvania State Historic Preservation Office (grant number P15AF00227) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is a Certified Local Government.
