The Last Billboard is a 36 foot long rooftop billboard located on the corner of Highland and Baum in Pittsburgh, PA, USA. Each month a different individual is invited to use the billboard. The custom designed billboard consists of a rail system with heavy wooden letters that are changed by hand.

Participating artists, writers and children have included Nina Katchadourian, Steve Lambert, Michael Crowe, Matt Shain, Maude Liotta, Marc Horowitz, Lenka Clayton, Joshua Beckman, Anthony Discenza, and Packard Jennings. The billboard sits on a busy urban throughway and is potentially viewed by over 10,000 people and cars a day.
