It was installed today atop the Senator John Heinz History Center in the Strip District.
The red-and-white neon sign -- it's a giant bottle of ketchup that empties and refills itself every 30 seconds -- is made of steel and aluminum and stands more than 42 feet high and 32 feet wide.
"The ketchup sign is a Pittsburgh icon, an artifact that many will recognize as a beloved feature of our city's skyline," said Andy Masich, History Center president and CEO.
Officials have scheduled a relighting ceremony for Friday, Pittsburgh's annual Light Up Night.
