Barco Law Building

The Barco Law Building, located on the University of Pittsburgh campus, is an iconic example of brutalist architecture and serves as the home of the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Opened in 1976, this six-story building features the Barco Law Library, which houses over 425,000 volumes and serves as a vital resource for students, faculty, and legal practitioners. The building also includes the Teplitz Memorial Moot Courtroom, designed for trial tactics classes and moot court programs, adorned with a striking mosaic that symbolizes the harmony of law. With its rich history dating back to the founding of the law school in 1895, the Barco Law Building is not only a center for legal education but also a hub of student activity and scholarly research.
