Greensburg, Pennsylvania

Westmoreland County publishes its whole assessment roll as a public ArcGIS Online layer with owners, sale prices and assessments, but that layer sits on services.arcgis.com, whose robots.txt answers 403, and the county's own websites close themselves to AI crawlers, so the roll is no longer read here. Owners now rest on Tribune-Review reports of recorded sales (citing the Recorder of Deeds), FirstEnergy and SEC filings and Wikipedia; the roll's parcel counts, holdings and assessment figures are kept only as unverified.

Can you find out who owns it?

Pennsylvania records title by deed with the county Recorder of Deeds; there is no state title register. Westmoreland County publishes its assessment roll as a public ArcGIS Online feature service (item 'MapUpdate_5_5_2025_WFL1', organisation 'Westmoreland County, PA'), but the service host's robots.txt answers 403 and the county's own websites forbid ClaudeBot, so neither is read. Sale prices are on the public record because the state levies a 1% realty transfer tax on the value, usually with a local tax on top; the local paper reports larger sales from the Recorder's filings.

The towers that set the tone of the core, and who holds them. A price is the price a document states, on the date it states — not an estimate of what the building is worth now.

Wikipedia (s4) gives it as the county's fourth courthouse, at 2 North Main Street, built 1906-08, with a dome reminiscent of the U.S. Capitol, and the 'dominant building' of the downtown historic district. The owner of record and the assessment came from the county parcel layer on services.arcgis.com, whose robots.txt answers 403, and are now under unverified; no other open source we reached states the title holder.

Wikipedia says Westmoreland Hospital, at 532 W. Pittsburgh St., is 'owned by Excela Health', with 373 beds (s5); the Excela Health article gives 364 licensed beds (s15).

The owner, acreage and 2019 sale price came from the county parcel layer on services.arcgis.com, robots 403, and are now under unverified, as is a conflicting report that the Sisters lease the land to the university.

FirstEnergy's 2011 merger release says 'the current headquarters building for Allegheny Energy in Greensburg' would become West Penn Power's regional headquarters (s20). In May 2023 FirstEnergy said about 480 employees were assigned there and it expected 60% of the building to be vacant; the distribution control centre stays (s21). West Penn Power merged into FE PA on 1 Jan 2024 (s7).

Greensburg train station

The Tribune-Review reported in February 2021 that Chelsted Limited Family Partnership, a Ligonier company, bought the station on Ehalt Street from StoneKim Properties LLC for about $1.1 million, per Recorder of Deeds filings, along with 101 N. Main St. and 101-103 E. Pittsburgh St. StoneKim had paid $525,000 in 2016 to the Westmoreland Cultural Trust, which had spent $3.5 million restoring it (s18).

The core land

The most valuable ground in the city, and what the public record says about it.

The most valuable ground in Greensburg is the courthouse square and the institutions around it. The county roll that gave assessed values and recorded sale prices sits on services.arcgis.com, whose robots.txt answers 403, so its figures (highest-assessed parcels, the whole city's $197.9M roll, median 2024 house sale $170,100) are now under unverified. The highest price another source documents is about $1.1M for the train station in 2021 (s18).

Who owns the town

At this scale the significant owner is rarely a trust or a fund: it is one or two local holding companies, a family in its second or third generation, and often the land around the town rather than the buildings in it.

The county roll that gave parcel counts and acreage for each holder sits on services.arcgis.com, whose robots.txt answers 403, so those figures are now under unverified. What remains is what other sources state: the Westmoreland Cultural Trust's downtown buildings (Tribune-Review) and the institutional owners named under the marquee buildings.

Westmoreland Cultural Trust
The Tribune-Review says the Trust owns and operates the Palace Theater, the Union Trust Building and the Stark/James Building downtown, besides the Greensburg Garden & Civic Center (s19). It sold the train station in 2016 for $525,000 (s18).

Who builds the houses

New-home building in this market: the volume, and the firms behind it. Ownership of a builder matters as much as its volume — a private-equity platform and a family firm behave differently.

Almost no new houses are being built in Greensburg. The Census Building Permits Survey records no permits at all in the city in 2025, with all 12 months reported (s10). Westmoreland County as a whole permitted 397 single-family homes worth $133.5M, 4 units in duplexes and 20 in 3-4-unit buildings (s11). The builders' parcel holdings came from the county roll on services.arcgis.com (robots 403) and are now under unverified.

Commercial landlords

The commercial side, counted separately from housing: who holds the office, retail and industrial floor area.

The county roll that ranked private holders by parcel count sits on services.arcgis.com, robots 403, so that ranking is now under unverified. The one private buyer another source documents is a Ligonier family partnership that spent more than $3 million on three downtown buildings in 2021.

Looked for and not found

Claims this page would have made if a source could be opened. They are left out rather than guessed.

  • The members or parents of Greensburg PA I SGF LLC (care of Boyd Watterson), I Choose Not To Run LLC, BI Greensburg LLC and BI Davis LLC, and the tenant of 144 N Main St: no filing we opened names them.
  • Westmoreland County's assessment base year, and the County's own statement of how assessed values relate to market value: the county websites (co.westmoreland.pa.us, westmorelandcountypa.gov) are closed to ClaudeBot or Cloudflare-blocked, so the gap is shown only through sale prices.
  • The Recorder of Deeds' search and copy fees and the local realty transfer tax rate for Greensburg: both sit on county or city pages that were not read.
  • Whether Westmoreland Hospital's title has passed to Excela Health or its successor system: the roll still names Westmoreland Hospital Association, and only Wikipedia states the Excela ownership.
  • University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg, Westmoreland Mall and the county airport: none appears under its own name on the Greensburg roll (they lie in surrounding townships), so they are not recorded here.
  • Courthouse owner of record 'WESTMORELAND CO & COMM OF PA', parcel 10-02-15-3-040, exempt, assessed $17,771,590 ($465,250 land, $17,306,340 building), the city's highest assessment and about 9% of the roll — previously from services.arcgis.com (Westmoreland County 'County Parcels' layer), whose robots.txt answers 403; no other open source found (2026-11-04)

  • Whether Seton Hill University or the Sisters of Charity holds title to the campus: a search snippet quotes a Sisters of Charity FAQ saying the order owns the land and leases it to the University for $1 a year for 99 years, which conflicts with the 2019 sale formerly read from the county roll; the FAQ page is no longer on scsh.org, so neither is cited (2026-11-04).
