URBAN ACADEMY

Discover the Renewal of a Former Lodge Hall into a Vibrant Community Space at 123 Meadow Street!

Located in Pittsburgh’s Larimer neighborhood, 123 Meadow Street is a historic building that has stood the test of time. In 2020, Urban Academy saw its potential as a community asset and acquired it with a vision of restoring it to its former glory.

Working together, Studio Volcy and Tink + Design Architecture reimagined the building’s interior, ensuring the space is a reflection of the community’s values and aspirations. The design team will also oversee exterior upgrades and the installation of sustainable MEP systems, reflecting Larimer’s commitment to environmental sustainability.

When completed, 123 Meadow Street will be a beacon of hope in the Larimer community, featuring versatile multi-purpose rooms, conference rooms, offices, and an ADA-compliant kitchen. Residents of all ages will have a safe and welcoming space to come together, share ideas, and participate in community projects.

Join us on this journey of revitalization, as we breathe new life into the building and transform it into a thriving hub of community engagement.
