"this Clay Alley was in the Lower Hill - parallel and between Wylie and Webster from Washington toward downtown. "
"I am trying to move tag to between 6th and 5th ave. The bldg at the right is the courthouse (5th ave side between Ross and Grant).One end of Wylie was at 5th ( block in the photo was renamed Court Pl sometime after this photo). "
"Pittsburgh Press Want ADs from the 1960s actually put this at 5920 Centre Ave, which is more in the Shadyside end of Centre Ave and is presently, a Whole Foods."
"The 9/5/1915 issue of the Pittsburgh Press confirms 317 as the address for Iron City Plumbing Co at that time. According to a 1905 Sanborn, the 300 Block of Penn would be about this location in the Gateway Center Complex. "
"Actually that's not strictly true, apparently they've redubbed one of the roads that now guides one through the parking lot that was the civic arena Logan Street. "
"Most of Logan St was among the casualties of the Civic Arena expansion, this little sliver is all that remains."
"those steps were at 5th ave - across from kirkpatrick. Brady was very steep between 5th and Forbes. That block of Brady is gone."
"and the tag is now correct. Erma had put in in Market Sq. ( the name of the latest tagger was not changed)"
"to be clear, the 10 times I refer to above is total since i joined the site - not just for this photo. Maybe it's more like 15 . but what does the 688 (now 690) mean? It looks like this site isn't maintained anymore. No problem, I love all the photos."
"and what does the number after my intial mean. I tried to tag and/or comment about 10 times. The number just went from 341? to 688????"
"there is a problem trying to tag ( or correct a tag) on this site. Photo is Wylie at 6th Ave , which was very near what is today very near Centre and 6th Ave"
"now it's better -- corrected location"
"location on map not close to correct"
"does the map to the left mean anything? it shows Wash. Pa, not Pgh!"
"Hey other Joe you're right about your location mine needs to be panned right to left "
