Pittsburgh in Sepia

Perhaps inspired by the tabletop stereocard viewer won at Dargate Auctions the day before, I had a few hours to explore Pittsburgh on foot and turned my camera setting to sepia. Pittsburgh has a good variety of architecture and includes buildings from notables including henry Hobson Richardson and Phillip Johnson.

I recently saw a survey saying the locals are more likely to want to move than the residents of other cities. I can’t imagine why. They must only focus on crime and sports, the topics the local newspapers are known for reporting most on. I suggest they get out of their cars, turn off the television and take a walk around the downtown. Certainly it is an attractive place to be, and in terms of art and architecture, it belongs to an elite group of North American cities.
