After a proposed 1965 acquisition by Pittsburgh Brewing ran afoul of anti-trust laws, Duquesne Brewing was sold to C.L. Schmidt Brewing Company of Philadelphia, which closed the flagship plant in 1972 due to competition from national brands and labor problems.The Duquesne Brewery clock, a Pittsburgh landmark, was the largest single face clock in the world when it was installed in 1933. The 60-foot-by-60-foot clock face is nearly twice the size of London's Big Ben.
The 1899 Duquesne Brewery building, located at Mary Street and 21st Street in the Southside Flats neighborhood, now is home to the Brew House Association, which provides housing, studio space, and a gallery for Pittsburgh artists. The adjacent new building has been partially restored but is currently vacant.
