The majority of these pictures were taken in 1950 and 1951 by the crew of notable photographers assembled to document the transformation of Pittsburgh--the "Pittsburgh Renaissance." The images in the Slideshow are cropped details from larger photos. For the purposes of the Slideshow--that is, to dramatize the presentation and to speed uncluttered loading of images--no identifying information was provided on the screens. To obtain whatever limited documentation is available, please email the Pennsylvania Department or contact us by phone (412) 622-3154. Reasonably-priced copies of these photographs are available.
