| This turn-of-the-century skyscraper sits on the corner of Wood St. and Fourth Avenue. Fourth Avenue is known as Pittsburgh's Wall St., because during Pittsburgh's steel making days 4th avenue was the location of many banks and financial institutions. The entrance to this building however is actually on Wood St. | |
