My Hood: Sheraden

Just a few shots of the hood where I've lived the last 10 years. Sheraden is located in Pittsburgh's West End. Kind of looks like some hoods I saw in Columbus.

Got a little bit of everything there, eh hero? This must be a fun place to bring home the groceries or stumble home drunk ( ):



Thanks for the tour.

It looks like Coshocton, which is hilly and in Ohio.

Great shots! It reminds me a bit of Driving Park in Columbus, as you said.

They should rename it "Herodotustown."

What a classic Pittsburgh 'hood.

Those rowhouses also remind me of Columbus.

This is much nicer than what my mental image of Sheraden has always been.... I've been there on many occaisions but the housing stock is really pretty good. Thanks for shedding light on my negative mental image!
