Squirrel Hill 01-16-1951



Bartlett and Murray Ave.  If I'm not mistaken, there is a liquor store on this corner these days.

Side note:  I would kill for one of the old Coca-Cola signs you can see in the background

Sun Drug Co Warehouse - 06/28/1946


I have no idea where exactly this is, but my gut tells me it may be the Terminal Building that sits on the Allegheny between Station Square and the SouthSide proper.

This shot is of Oliver Avenue between Smithfield and Wood taken 05-20-1948.  The block is mostly covered by the backside of the First Presbyterian Church that houses the top notch eatery Franktuary in its basement.

PGH Skyline 198?

Not sure exactly when this pic was taken, but with PPG being there and 5th Ave place not, i'd peg this sometime in the late 80s
