    Great Pictures as always. The picture from Arlington Ave looks like you were a couple feet from my house.

    I don’t think your dog has a right to be mad at the Pirates when he was wearing Steelers gear to the game. haha.

    I keep waiting to see pics of the new constructions going in Pittsburgh. It just gives those of us living so far away insight to the inner transformations going in in the ‘Burgh. Matt, could you do that for us and add them to your sweeping views. It would give us a real feel for what is going on in the heart of the city. Thanks for the beautiful pics.

    Beneath the neon lights…

    How about some pictures from Kennywood. A part of so many memories of our childhood, and the memories to be made for our children. Not to mention its a part of Pittsburgh tradition and history. As always, great job on these new photos.

    Hi, I am thinking of moving to Pittsburgh even though I have never been there before. I just can’t stand Maryalnd anymore…do you have any photos of the “southside” I can look at? I’m a musician and everyone has recommend that if I move to Pittsburgh, that I probably would want to move to that area. I can’t really get a good idea of what it is like cause the photos online suck. Do you have any photos of your I can check out? You really capture great shots

    Hi, I suddenly remembered this site when explaining how Pittsburgh is. Thanks for all the beautiful photos. It’s made me homesick again. He now understands why I love Pittsburgh. Wierd how it’s touched me heart and I’ve lived the otherside of the world all my life. I’m looking forward to my 3rd visit early 2010.

    Fantastic Pictures! Haven’t lived in Natrona Heights, for over 40 years, but it, and Pittsburgh, will always be home. Everything else is only a residential address.
