The warm weather is here and you can see it in the Homewood field – though it still needs a few months to take root. This month, the project is moving forward with the pool shed nearing completion and beginning of construction on the pedestrian walkways and the buildings/pool.

IMPORTANT UPDATE! Schenley Park Track & Turf Field will be fully CLOSED from May 26-June 1, as the new track surface will be poured. We apologize for the inconvenience & appreciate the public’s cooperation. (All permit holders have been notified.) @Pittsburgh @PGHDPW
