The Fitzgerald Field House still exists and has a track. It's not in great shape and only open with a Pitt ID, but I've used it in winters.
Eventually (2027?) there will be a new 300m indoor facility. I think it'll be the only indoor track in the area.
I didn't realize that it was still there. I haven't been to Pittsburgh in many years. I know it was located next to Pitt Stadium so I assumed it came down when the stadium did to make room for the Petersen Center. I remember attending the WPIAL championship basketball game in the mid-80s at Fitzgerald. I was aware of the Victory Heights plan and it looks amazing. From what I can tell, the new track will be located where the "Dome" currently stands and the new athletic facility will be beside Petersen. I wonder if they will tear down Fitzgerald once Victory Heights is complete. That place is OLD and no teams would have a use for it anymore.
