Father Pitt’s Pittsburgh Encyclopedia is where old Pa Pitt keeps all the references he doesn’t want to lose track of. As the site grows, you’ll find biographies of local architects, links to historic maps and documents, and other things that make research easier.

The site is built in a very simpleminded way, and instead of weighing it down with a database and comment system, Father Pitt will use this page to corral any corrections or comments readers might have about the information in the Encyclopedia. If you have more information, or better information, or an entertaining story or observation about something you see there, come to this page and leave a comment below.
