Cool shots.

 

[Long Island Mike]

Great Downtown Pittsburgh Pics!

Brandon: In just three pics you showed how interesting the Golden Triangle is!
The one question I have is what is that long building with the curving white roof that is adjacent to the old PRR bridge(Now Norfolk Southern/Amtrak) over the Allegheny River in the first pic?
That UPMC sign on the USX/USS Steel Building really stands out today-when was that placed?
