Joe Magarac, steel working Superjack Joe can bend steel bars at will. The Croatian steelworkers around Pittsburgh gave rise to the tall tales of Joe Magarac. I read that <i>magarac</i> means donkey in Croatian. So there is satire in these Joe Magarac tales of how super Joe can work through bad steel working conditions.

Cathedral of Learning and Amos Hall (nearside) View of the Cathedral of Learning from Amos Hall (4022 Fifth Avenue), Pittsburgh Partial and edited quote from Wikipedia: "The Cathedral of Learning is a 42-story skyscraper that serves as the centerpiece of the University of Pittsburgh's (Pitt) main campus in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Standing at 535 feet (163 m), the 42-story Late Gothic Revival building is the tallest educational building in the Western Hemisphere. It is also the second-tallest gothic-styled building in the world, after the Woolworth Building in Manhattan. The Cathedral of Learning was commissioned in 1921 and ground was broken in 1926 under general contractor Stone & Webster. It is a Pittsburgh landmark listed in the National Register of Historic Places."
Allegheny County Soldiers' Memorial, Pittsburgh I had not known or planned to visit the Allegheny Co. Soldiers' Memorial, so it was an accidental discovery during my Pittsburgh trip. Unfortunately I was meeting Brandon soon and so did not go in. One day perhaps I'd go back?
