great thread. There were some that I never seen before.

I think pic 73, really shows the definition and character of the burgh. Well actually all your pictures really stick out in getting the character of the city. Good job. your threads rock!

It houses both a McDonald's and a Wendy's. It is Pittsburgh's oldest existing skyscraper, dating from the 1890s... though the facade has suffered a 1960s defacement.

McDonalds and Wendys?? What a CROCK!

I wish it would go back to its original use from 1890 when it housed Ye Olde Taco Belle.

There's not enough words in the world to describe the awesomeness of Pittsburgh (and not enough hateful words to describe the Steelers )

Say hi to Donnie Iris for me

A beautiful retrospective!

It's obvious you're in love with Pittsburgh, and it's easy to see why!
