  • Two Apartment Buildings on Voelkel Avenue, Dormont

    These apartment buildings are a riot of patterns in bricks. Old Pa Pitt knows nothing about them other than what we see in the pictures, but he would not be surprised if they were designed by Charles R. Geisler, who lived nearby in Beechview and designed many other small and medium-sized apartment buildings in Dormont and Mount Lebanon, and who was fond of using patterned bricks for decoration.
