Another bridge shot. Pittsburgh bridges make me think of home, you can pick them out from anywhere. This was taken on the North Shore infront of the stadiums. When I lived on the North Side, these bridge lights would light up my room.
This was taken from Rialto Street in Troy Hill. The sad thing about this picture is that the steepness of the hill isn't as easy to see, it literally like a roller coaster. I used to have to walk this hill to get to crew practice everyday in highschool.
This picture is of the Heinz Lofts, I would be able to see this building from my bedroom window. The architecture of the building is much more prominent at night and also in black and white. It's a creepy looking building in the day and creepier at night.
This is taken from Haslage Street in Spring Hill, my old neighborhood. You can see the skyline in the distance, pretty much anywhere in this neighborhood there is a good view of the city. I always loved the way I felt that I was closed off in a residential place and was still in the city. I think it's much easier to see at night.
This is infront of the Children's Museum on the North Side, right across the street from my gradeschool. This is another building where the architechture of it stands out much better at night. Because it's lit up and the sky is dark you can really see the beauty of it. Thanks to Pittsbugh History Landmarks it didn't get torn down like a lot of other buildings in Allegheny Center.
This is famous in Spring Hill. It's a castle built into the side of a hill, a man made it for his wife as a gift. A lot of people call it Mr. Rodgers Castle, but it's definitely something that makes me think of home.
This was taken infront of one of the creepiest houses in Spring Hill with it's notoriously creepy Buckeye Tree. I don't think I could have captured the feel of the tree in a better way.
16th Street Bridge. The one bridge that every Northsider knows, especially because it's the main way we would go Downtown, to the Strip, Bloomfield...anywhere. This is my favorite bridge of all time and it's an iconic image of home to me.
