J D LLama is pleased to present the property of the Paul O'Neill family from their Shadyside home. Mr. O'Neill was widely known as a well respected member of not only the Pittsburgh community, but of the national and international community as well. From a modest background, he rose to become the highly regarded, long time CEO of the industrial powerhouse Alcoa.  With his guidance, Alcoa grew from a company with a market value of $3 billion in 1986 to $27.53 billion in 2000. Following in the footsteps of Pittsburghers Walter Forward in the 19th century and Andrew Mellon in the 20th century, Mr. O'Neill was appointed as Secretary of the Treasury by newly elected President George W Bush in 2001.  A champion of fiscal responsibility and worker safety, he left his position in the Bush administration at the end of 2002. He was an active member of the non-profit community in Pittsburgh helping found Riverlife Task Force and the Pittsburgh Regional Healthcare Initiative. He was also involved in the RAND Corporation and numerous other non-profits.
