Description: Picture of Howe-Childs Gate House located at 5918 Fifth Avenue in the Shadyside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on April 10, 2010. The house was built around 1861 by Thomas Marshall Howe. Originally "Willow Cottage", it is supposedly the oldest wood frame house in Pittsburgh and the oldest existing house from the city's "Millionaire's Row." Former owners of the clapboard Gothic revival/cottage style house include members of the Howe and Childs families, Mary Howard Childs, and also Michael L. Benedum. The house is currently owned by Chatham University, and is on the List of Pittsburgh Landmarks recognized by the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation (PHLF).
