Stay In The Original Yaca Dome In Pittsburgh For A One-Of-A-Kind Adventure
Pittsburgh boasts some pretty unique accommodations – from a former convent on the South Side to an enchanting treehouse in Farmington. However, the Original Yaca Dome in Pittsburgh just might be the most unique destination to spend a night. When you first walk through the front door, in fact, you’ll likely feel as though you’ve stepped into a time capsule.
While most people know it as the Original Yaca Dome, those who own the unique Pittsburgh Airbnb simply refer to it as "The Igloo."
No matter what you call it, you can't deny it's perhaps the most unique property in the Pittsburgh area. Built by Pittsburgher Joseph Yacoboni in 1969, the dome-shaped home was the first of only 26 built in the United States.
Its one-of-a-kind design had a few purposes - to allow it to stand up against winds of up to 250 miles per hour and to ensure it stayed standing during earthquakes.
If you need any help with that stroll down Memory Lane, take a peek at the vintage coffee pots in the kitchen. Did someone you know - or maybe even you - have the same pattern way back when?
