Around The 'Burgh

From last week's trip to Pittsburgh / Univerity Of Pittsburgh.  A few non-campus shots:


It was grey and rainy almost the whole trip...  I saw these two while aiting for the elveator at the hotel (7th floor aspect).

Hot O Shop....  This is along Forbes Ave, in / around Pitt campus.  Looks like this place was here when I lived just up the road (in the 70's)...  but I don't remember.

Interesting remnants of something....    I came across this site by happenstance. Driving around the north hills of Pittsburgh (Shaler Township). Not sure what it was, but I thought it was pretty interesting. 



Looks like a large loading bay facing the road. 
The ramp at the back, going out of picture to the left crosses a stream, to (remains of) a small building by a railroad track. To the right is a large open field, presumably the former site of an industrial facility.The the main road (Rt. 8). I'm guessing this was some sort of depot for whatever factory used to be here.

Homeless....  We saw these two gentleman a couple of times over the 3 days...  Outside the CVS on Forbes Ave.

 We passed though Cleveland on the way home.  This is actually Ohio City, on the west side of the Cuyahoga River from Cleveland.  Lots of effects here, to emphasize the lines....
