  • Description
  • The Long Administration Building on the Pittsburgh Xenia Seminary campus is named for Dr. George A. Long, who served as the Seminary’s second president from 1943-1955. Dr. Long presided over the Seminary’s move from Pittsburgh's North Side neighborhood to the Highland Avenue facility in the East Liberty section of the city. The ground breaking for the Long Administration Building took place in September 1952, two years prior to the final move to East Liberty. There are six classrooms, five seminar rooms, faculty and administrative offices, as well as a student center, a reception room, and the Bible Lands Museum located within the administrative building. It was constructed of Hampton Court Colonial red brick and Indiana limestone in the American Colonial Style.
