So Ive lived here for a little over a year now so its about time I make another thread. I dont have the time right now to label where all the photos were taken as Im very busy co authoring a book with Preservation Pittsburgh at the moment. But anyways, heres some of my best photos Ive taken over the past year of the city and surrounding region. Ive posted some of these before but oh well. Please visit my facebook page all about Western PA history where I have all of these photos and way more and go into depth about the history of all these places Ive photographed. This thread may blow up your computer with how big it is, sorry.
