Three Rivers Implosion
In honor of what the Pirates have been able to do this far, continuing with the idea of putting the past in the past.

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.

Olver Avenue 05-20-1948
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

Forbes Field (year unkown)
I can't seem to find a date for this delightful picture of Forbes Field from above. Little info could be scraped from the faded stamp on the back of the photo. All that could be discerned was that the photo came from the Carnegie, and was most likely purchased at some point in the early to mid eighties.
As far as the picture goes, I'm most fascinated by the densely packed parking lot at the bottom of the shot. Assuming those are cars of the game's attendees, how long do you think it would free the central cars after the game?
