Dimensions Given The McKeesport building is 51 feet wide and 91 feet long and has a one story lounge which is 21 feet wide and 51 feet long. Faced by a larger demand for enrollment than it could house in the rooms it was using in an ele mentary school, the University was considering giving up the McKeesport Center.

Buck, realtor, gave the University a four and one-half acre tract of land worth 560,000 in the Renzie Hauzen Park area of McKeesport. The city is also building a new street into the center, which will be called University Drive. Rent will be paid under a lease .purchase agreement, which will enable the University to own the building.
