Aside from what you see in the pictures, old Pa Pitt knows nothing about this building on Brownsville Road. It was probably put up in the 1920s, and it has the look of a car dealer. But it really looks like nothing else in Pittsburgh, and the current owners seem to appreciate its uniqueness. The most striking feature, of course, is that organ-pipe crest, which reminds Father Pitt of the purely ornamental “pipe tops” that used to be fashionable on Victorian reed organs.
