The problem is that in going around the city, only place with this type of 
turn seems to be a 71 car turning onto Euclid at Highland Park, but that's 
level.  Don't recall anything in Wilkinsburg like this.  Can we also 
eliminate East Pittsburgh?  McKeesport gone prior to PAT.  For southside, 
can't think of any curves that would work.  Same for northside.  And not the 
type of buildings to be found in Golden Triangle.  Thus come back to 
outbound 88 turning from Liberty onto 32nd.  I give up!
