Back in the Steel Town Hay Days

my old Pittsburgh home
I visited Pittsburgh for the first time in 28 years last weekend and circled a few old haunts. The picture above was my first apartment out of college. North Side, circa 1920.

$142.50 per month ($4.75 per day) covered the rent in 1982 which included, of course, my starving artist discount. Ah... Perrysville Avenue, how I so do not miss thee....


(Oh, and if your phone has some smarts, then you can follow me on it as well.)
