Why should the beautiful die?


Educational Wing of the Second Presbyterian Church of Wilkinsburg

Educational wing

We have seen pictures of this building before, but a fine building in poor condition will disappear sooner or later without a miraculous intervention, so it is always good to seize the opportunity to harvest a few more pictures when one is in the neighborhood. (There’s a for-sale sign on the door: you could buy this building right now and make the miracle happen.) The educational wing was built in 1928; it was designed by Lawrence Wolfe, with O. M. Topp, one of the architects of the original 1911 church to which it is attached, as associate architect.
