Chatham Center is a 5.5-acre mid-century complex of offices, a hotel, and residential towers built between 1964 and 1966 in downtown Pittsburgh, named for the Earl of Chatham, William Pitt, for whom the city itself is named. It was developed by Chatham Center Inc., led by investors Morton S. Wolf and Leon Falk Jr., financed by New York's Irving Trust Company and Pittsburgh's Mellon National Bank, and designed by architects William Lescaze and Harry H. Lefkowitz.
