Wigman House
By Seeker
The Wigman House, a historic Queen Anne style residence built in 1896, is located in the Carrick neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Once part of the affluent 'Millionaire's Row,' it was constructed for William H. Wigman, a lumber magnate. This four-bedroom home is the last remaining structure from an era when wealthy entrepreneurs sought refuge from the city's smoke. After being owned by the McClory family since 1952, the house faced potential demolition in 2011, prompting local preservationists to advocate for its historic designation. The property is now recognized as a significant example of the region's architectural heritage, making it a point of interest for tourists and researchers alike.
