[PRCo] Re: Glenwood Bridge

[Edward H. Lybarger]

This photo has been around a while.  It can't be the back of Glenwood CH;
the location relative to the bridge is incorrect.  The photo looks
downstream; the car house would be on the other side of the street and to
the right.

There was once a car line that followed this bank of the river, and that's
what I think we're looking at on the right.  Clearly there are both trolleys
and railroad cars in this scene; I think it may have been built as the
Second Avenue Traction Company's material yard.  Who wants to go onto the
Historic Pittsburgh website and search the plat maps for this area?

Hello. Since you gentlemen are so knowledgeable, can you provide any insight
regarding the attached picture? I know it is the Glenwood bridge but that's
about it.

Thanks
