Here are two more incredible neighborhoods in Pittsburgh's north side.  These two neighborhoods are west of Mexican War Streets.

 

Allegheny West

 

It was very helpful that Pittsburgh's street signs indicate which neighborhood you are located in.

Here is a Richarsonian church.  This was indeed built by the famous architect Henry Hobson Richardson in 1885.

This interior is very rustic.  I'm guessing it is influenced from Norwegian design concepts.  I noticed that other Episcopalian churches have similar interiors.

more of my favorite residential areas!  Great job capturing the architectural beauty!

Beautiful! I can imagine it in spring, when the sun shines and buds are opening.

 

The building on the corner in the second photo looks like an older conjoined pair of houses that got a makeover around 1900. Kind of strange, but interesting.

I really need to make a trip to see Pittsburgh... not from the interstate.

I like the street signs and tree-lined streets as well.

Those street signs have saved my butt more times than i care to count.

There was a fire in that building about two years ago.
