Most Pittsburghers probably think of Green Tree(1) as the quintessential postwar dormitory suburb. The borough does have a longer history, however, and one small area near the intersection of Greentree Road and Potomac Avenue was built up with unusually fine houses in the 1920s and 1930s. Greenridge Lane is part of that little enclave.
Footnotes
- The borough is officially spelled as two words; its main street and many of its other institutions are officially spelled “Greentree.” (↩)
