With no other preface, we present a few of the pictures from 2025 that pleased old Pa Pitt the most, beginning with the Pittsburgh Gage & Supply Co., Strip District.
United Steelworkers Building (built as the IBM Building).
Lake Elizabeth, West Park (North Side), on a winter afternoon.
Green tulip.
Buildings by Tasso Katselas at the main campus of the Community College of Allegheny County.
Tiny mushroom on a twig.
Crafton Station on the West Busway, with St. Philip’s Church in the background.
Crafton Borough Building.
Rainbow terrace on Dawson Street in Oakland.
Apartment building on College Street, Shadyside.
Tower of St. Pamphilus Church, Beechview.
Entrance to Fifth Avenue Place.
Light and shade at the CNG Tower, now known as EQT Plaza.
Wilkinsburg Station.
Bernard Gloeckler Co. warehouse, Strip District.
McBride Building. This looks like a fairly ordinary photograph of a building, but a lot of technical fussing went into making the perspective look anything like normal, since the picture had to be taken from very close.
Liberty Bridge.
Wilkinsburg Masonic Temple.
Japanese maple in the South Side Cemetery.
Nodding Foxtail (Setaria faberi).
An Art Deco urn at the Beechwood School in Beechview.
The CNG Tower, now known as EQT Plaza.
A house in Beverly Heights, Mount Lebanon.
The Hall of Sculpture at the Carnegie. The picture was taken with the ultra-wide auxiliary camera on Father Pitt’s phone, so it looks lousy enlarged, but at a small size it seems like a nice composition.
A bungalow in Beechview. The snow and the colors seemed to capture the essence of a winter afternoon.
