SPORTS MURAL


A TRIBUTE TO
SPORTS LEGENDS

    The Pittsburgh Sports Mural was painted directly on the brick wall of a 24 story office building at 500 Wood Street Downtown.  The Sports Mural was completed in 1992,   featured Pittsburgh Sports Legends:  Mario Lemieux,  Roberto Clemente,  Joe Green,  Jack Lambert and Bill Mazeroski.   Judy Penzer was the artist who designed this sports mural,   she was a passenger on TWA Flight 800.
    On May 25, 1997, at approximately 3:50 PM,  100 pounds of explosives were used to demolish the office building to make way for a new department store.
