The Boys' Club of Pittsburgh is a historic building in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Built in 1912 as the Lawrenceville YMCA, the three-story building was designed by local architect Robert Trimble and originally included a gymnasium, swimming pool, bowling alley, and dormitories.[3] In 1928 the building was sold to the Pittsburgh Boys' Club,[4] which became part of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America. The Boys & Girls Club continued to use the building until 2000, when a new facility was completed two blocks away.[5] Subsequently, the older building was occupied by a charter school until 2014 and then converted into apartments.[6] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.[1]
