Fort Pitt Block House, It's History!

In this It's History documentary, we tell the story of the Fort Pitt Block House in Pittsburgh. Constructed in 1764, the block house was originally part of the defenses for Fort Pitt. After the fort was decommissioned, the block house was used as a residence. Today the block house is run by the Daughters of the American Revolution as a historic site that is open to the public.
