The Baldwin Historical Society brings you another trivia question that delves into our area's colorful past. Pat Lombardi and Patty Woehler, co-presidents of the society, generously write the questions and provide the pictures.
Here is this week's question, er ... questions:
This place opened on Memorial Day of 1872. It is a rare surviving example of rural leisure grounds developed by transportation companies in the late 19th century to entice city dwellers to visit and ultimately settle in the country.
It was built by the Pittsburgh Railroad Company and began as an open pavilion for picnics. It was later enclosed for year-round use.
It was run by the Weber family until the early 1900s, when it closed. The Hughes family then purchased the property and reopened it as a restaurant and nightclub.
