About Koppers Tower

The Koppers Building in Pittsburgh is a historic landmark in the heart of downtown, built in 1929 by the architecture firm Graham, Anderson, Probst & White. A standout example of Art Deco style, the tower impresses with its Indiana limestone facade, a polished granite base, and a distinctive copper roof that is illuminated at night. Inside, you can admire an ornate lobby with marble walls. At 34 stories, the building rises 145 meters (476 feet) and has shaped the look of downtown Pittsburgh since its completion. Originally built for the Koppers Chemical Corporation, it later also served as headquarters for other institutions.
