The Society may, from time to time, acquire real property, artifacts, archival materials, and other objects consistent with its purpose.
Mt. Lebanon is located in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, about six miles south of Pittsburgh. The six-square-mile area was mostly farmland when it was incorporated as a first class township on February 6, 1912. The opening of the Liberty Tunnels in May 1924, however, created easy access to the city and growth accelerated. Mt. Lebanon quickly became an example of an “automobile suburb.”
