Benedum Center Marquees

The distinctive and historic Stanley Photoplay marquee on the Penn Avenue side of the Benedum Center, as well as the main marquee on 7th Street, is currently being refurbished by a local sign fabricator. The project is made possible with the generous support of the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation and donors to the Trust: Building on the Dream Campaign for Pittsburgh’s Cultural District. The project underwent extensive review by the City of Pittsburgh Planning Commission, the Zoning Board of Adjustment, and the Historic Review Commission to ensure that the Benedum Center maintains the appearance that earned it a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.
