You Can Stay Where The Bathtub King of Pittsburgh Once Ruled

The boutique Industrialist Hotel is set to open in Downtown’s The Arrott Building by early May. April 26, 2021 PHOTOS BY AZEEZ BAKARE STUDIOS Built in 1902 and standing 18 stories high, The Arrott Building on Wood Street Downtown was, in its prime, a testament to the extravagance of its day and its owner the Bathtub King of Pittsburgh, James Arrott.  Since the 1970s, following a failed attempt to convert it into 100 apartments for senior citizens, the office building has sat mostly empty, save for a Subway restaurant on its bottom level.  However, the grand bones of the building, which was added to the Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation Historic Landmarks list in 2000, remained intact and formed the basis for a new boutique hotel.
