[PRCo] Mixed Bag Of Old Pittsburgh

[BobDietrich]

You can see the path of what I think they called the Indian Steps, or
something like that, that climbed up from the base of the incline to
Duquesne Heights.  Easiest to spot high above the Nut company.  That was the
longest flight of stairs in the city.  I'm told my Grandpa would climb it
after a day in the Mill.  Whewwww!

Give that man a cigar! See attached snippet of 1917 Hopkins real estate map
(volume 7, page 6), covering the area in the photo.
