[PRCo] 7th Street

[Jim Holland]

This 1929 map of Pgh is interesting  --  it was determined before that 
Greyhound was built within triangle of Grant // Liberty in 1930s  --  
maybe the double track turn for PRCo was built then as well.
.
Note that 7th is wider between Grant // William-Penn-Way than between 
latter and Smithfield.      While the second track on 7th had fallen out 
of usage quite some time before, it remained into the 1950s and 
later.       I seem to remember that the devil strip between The Way and 
Grant was wider because of wider street but haven't found photos to 
confirm.       Track between Smithfield and Wm-Penn-Way on 7th may have 
been removed.
