Thanks Tim! I love these videos and what an historic record. Makes me think just how "short" one hundred years is a city like Pittsburgh! Appears most of the houses are still standing in one form or another. The vintage pics are priceless.
I love your videos; thank you for all the effort you put in to make these!.... My father (DOD in 2010) was born at 2441 Sorrel Street in 1925, and my mother on East Street in 1928. (DOD in January 2024). I love seeing Pittsburgh as it was in those days.
Your videos are so interesting!! Been gone from Pittsburgh many years but your videos bring me back there more than anything else. Thank you so much. Greatly appreciated!
love your match ups and obvious time you put into your videos..... was just about to mention the rte 66 episode with the clip from the incline but your thoroughness beat me to it. great stuff man.
Thanks! I had almost the whole timeline set up when I was reminded of that episode. Thankfully, it was on UA-cam. There aren't many "contemporary" films of those inclines that have bit the dust. I get a kick out of the fact that the leave the Hilton hotel and come down Arlington. Then after the incline ride they go to the LeMont. I'd rather drive that 'Vette up Sycamore! LOL!
@@TimeTravelWithTim that is crazy as well as how they ended up in Pittsburgh from rte 66.... that episode also shows the first Renaissance well. we were in the I guess "Hilton" hotel on the top floor and got into the end meeting room I think where they look out over the point. sad there's not a lot of footage but you're doing your part documenting.
@@TimeTravelWithTim Maybe a trip from the river along Federal Street, up the extension, and around Perrysville Avenue. My grandmother lived on Pusey Street at Perrysville, and as a young teenager I used to walk from downtown over the 6th Street bridge, up the extension hill, to her house. You could include Fineview in that video also, I think. Thank you for all you do!
As a junkie I spent a TON of time inside of many of the buildings u see abandoned and in disrepair throughout the years. What's crazy is in many of my drug induced comas I would find myself looking at these now broken building and thinking(much like myself) at one time this building was new...it was once the pride of someone's existence...and now it's just a hollowed out,run down pile of nothing most people try to just ignore and would rather just go away
Tim, interesting content but you totally lost me around 19:00 - you just started driving on random roads with no explanation as to why. And that "music" ... where the hell did you find that?? Around 23:15 I felt like I was in some hippie's acid trip. No bueno. No idea why people feel a need to include dopey background noise (it really doesn't qualify as music).
"Random roads?" Every road is clearly identified. 19:06 says "Laclede." Before that I explain that I'm on the old ROW from Bailey to Kathleen. Go back and watch it again. If you're lost google a map if you're not familiar. Here: www.arcgis.com/apps/View/index.html?appid=63f24d1466f24695bf9dfc5bf6828126 As far as music, my older videos use commercial music and Facebook alerts me to copyright issues that if the channel were ever monetized (it's not - I get no money from it - just trying to share old pics free of BS) any money from those vids would go to the music companies. So I spend lots of time searching through copyright free music looking for something that "might" fit. Sometimes it's just throwing darts. And then I try to turn it down in the vid. If ya' don't like it, turn down your volume. I ain't Martin Scorsese, ya' know.

I may be impartial but pt 4 is my favorite just music alone @ the end was freakin awesome my friend!!!
Really great job and video. Thanks for taking me back.
Very Good
Like I said in pt 1 122 Bailey Ave we had 65 steps to get up to our apartment but my goodness the view was amazing and worth every step
Thanks for another great video, as always!
Excellent video and editing as always.
This may be your best Pittsburgh video yet, Tim - so much detail!
LOL! Thanks!!! Now how do I top it?

Profound!!!
Very interesting and enjoyed the then and now format. Some periodic map overlay might be useful. But thanks!

Doin' "O.K."
