The Assembly: A historic research facility

5051 Centre Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15213

The Assembly is a unique research facility and conference venue with a rich history unlike any other. A century ago, The Assembly was Ford automotive’s first Model T assembly plant in the US. Over the years the building has become a clothing store and a stationary store. Today, the building has been transformed into a cutting-edge research facility, housing researchers working on cancer and other diseases. We hope this venue will facilitate innovative ideas, new collaboration and relationships, and many priceless memories.
