The Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad Station, now Landry's, Inc.'s the Grand Concourse restaurant in Station Square Plaza in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is a building from 1898. Into the 1960s the station was a hub station for the passenger rail operations of New York Central's Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad and a minor hub for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (which had its own station in Pittsburgh). It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1][4]
