Preserving houses several venues under one roof. There is the main stage which is housed in a former 19th Century chapel and two smaller rooms on the bottom floor which operate as Preserving Underground and The DIY Room, respectively. The venue boasts its more-than-adequate free street parking and free parking lots in all directions of the venue. Located in the heart of Downtown New Kensington and part of a city-wide revitalization, the trip is a mere 20-minute trip up Route 28 from Downtown Pittsburgh. Alcohol and food are available at the venue for purchase as well one of Pittsburgh's Top 3 Record Stores (as voted by City Paper). Preserving Record Shop is open before, during and after all shows.
