[PRCo] Mixed Bag Of Old Pittsburgh

Sat Jun 29 16:06:18 EDT 2013

First one is interesting - shows West End car barn next to Point Bridge. - lower center  

And second one looks like the photographer walked onto the Point Bridge to take a pic of Wabash RR Bridge.

I've seen #4 before - construction of Brookline Blvd at West Liberty.  There's a series on digital Pgh site.

#5 - Tempted to say that photographer is on top of Wabash Terminal with view looking up Liberty towards PRR station.  Other possibilities???

Last one - #7 - is another West Liberty Ave. pix.  Again from digital Pgh site.
