The dedication of the new facility of the Allegheny Observatory in Pittsburgh occurred one hundred years ago on 1912 August 28. However, it took many years to reach the day when well-known astronomer and telescope-maker, and Chairman of the Observatory Committee, John Brashear made the address presenting the new Observatory building to the Trustees of the University of Pittsburgh.
