Highland Park The Highland Park Neighborhood of Pittsburgh

The house tour committee is pleased to announce that the next Highland Park House Tour will be Saturday, September 29, 2007. The majority of homeowners who were contacted about being on the tour in 2006 wanted more time to complete renovations, so we decided to not hold a tour in fall 2006. We are looking to the neighborhood for two things at the moment: 1) We are still in need of 3-5 homes for the tour. Many of the homes on the tour have undergone some sort of renovation and/or restoration. Although this is not a prerequisite for being on the tour, any home with interest and character will be considered. Homeowners do not need to be present during the tour, the only requirement is that the house is clean and neat for the day of the tour. The House Tour Committee will provide volunteers to guide visitors during the tour and keep them out of off limits areas. Our past homeowners who have shared their houses with 300-500 visitors from around the city have greatly enjoyed the experience and the opportunity show off their hard work and decorating skills! If you'd like to talk about the possibility of having your house on the tour, please call Brigette at 412-363-6869 or email Amy at housetour@highlandparkpa.com. 2) We also need community members interested in helping to plan and organize the tour during the upcoming fall and winter - working on PR, creating and hanging posters, selling program ads, coordinating ticket sales, etc. Next spring, we will also need to start gathering volunteers to work the day of the tour. If you are interested in helping to organize or volunteer for the tour, please call Brigette at 412-363-6869 or email Amy at housetour@highlandparkpa.com.
