Shadyside is beautiful east end neighborhood of Pittsburgh filled with Victorian and Georgian Mansions, and in the spring, blossoming trees and flowers.

nice job, dude! strangely, the mansions of western Shadyside are often ignored in photo threads

^^that's what I thought, I've seen quite a few Shadyside threads but don't remember all those mansions.

Beautiful pictures and neighbourhood

This picture is very pleasing.

I love the way you composed these shots... the blossoms, flowers and leaves are so prominent

btw, someone's pumping a few million into this mansion to do something with it... but i can't remember now... it's posted somewhere in the Pittsburgh thread

^ Bed and Breakfast. It caught fire a few years ago that's why it's boarded up. Nice photos.

I was wondering what was going on with that place. I hoped it was just being fixed up and not torn down.

BTW, thanks to everyone for their kind posts.

Very cool!

Great shots! One of Pittsburgh's most beautiful neighborhoods. I love the tight Victorian streets.

I think I saw some of your post on city-data's forum (the Mexican Warstreets?). They were awesome. I hope you post here more. Pittsburgh can never run out of neighborhood threads to showcase.

Very beautiful neighborhood. Great shots man.

If Carnegie didn't live here he should have.

Ugly... lacks charm.

And I thought Shadyside was too shady to visit! jks haha I really wanted to reach out there when I was in town but didn't make it. I will DEFINATELY be checking it next time around!

Thanks for the tour... and the clarification! Shadyside is FAR from shady
