An artificial ice rink at the Duquesne Gardens opened in Pittsburgh on January 23, 1899. It featured a 26,000 square foot ice surface, which was nearly 50 feet longer than the modern-day rinks in the National Hockey League, and utilized state-of-the-art refrigeration and resurfacing technologies.

With the opening of the rink, the Western Pennsylvania Hockey League and the Pittsburgh Interscholastic League were revived. Both had abruptly ceased when the Schenley Park Casino burned down in December 1896. The Pittsburgh Athletic Club won the WPHL while Pittsburgh High School earned the Interscholastic League championship.
