The Park Place School is a former elementary school in the Point Breeze neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1903 at the then-extravagant cost of $100,000, with 9 classrooms and a basement play area.[2]
The school closed in 1979 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] Later, it briefly functioned as an apartment building. It currently houses the Primary K-2 Campus of the Environmental Charter School.[3]
