More Garfield street art



Argh. I'm really sorry. Whatever it is that's struck the PDP household, it's powerful. If a regular cold has the power of the Pirates, whatever we have is more like the Steelers, plus the Penguins, plus Pitt basketball, plus several outstanding local high school football teams. You see what we're up against here.

So, I don't know when posting will get regular again, but I'm here today at least, with another photo of Garfield street art. Garfield is frequently mentioned as one of Pittsburgh's up-and-coming neighborhoods, and there's a lot going on there, but it's retained a grittiness that I think you don't see in, say, Lawrenceville, and what's going on there strikes me as a bit more interesting as a result. If you drive down Penn you'll see a lot of sketchy parts of Garfield, but also what has to be one of the highest concentrations of public art in the city, which is pretty neat.
