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?

The Cathedral of Learning, University of Pittsburgh, 5th Avenue and Bigelow Boulevard, Oakland, Pittsburgh, PA Built in 1926-1934, this Gothic Revival-style tower was designed by Charles Klauder to serve as an administration building and classroom building for the University of Pittsburgh.

The building is clad in limestone with a massing that tapers towards the top and center with multiple setbacks, a four-story podium at the base with bay windows and tall recessed gothic arched entrance bays, buttresses and tracery on the exterior facade, pinnacles and a parapet with multiple gothic arches at the top of the building, a theater to the southeast of the main building with similar exterior features but a much lower height, known as the Stephen Foster Memorial, and a series of themed classrooms with various decorative finishes inside the building.

The building today remains the principal structure of the University of Pittsburgh campus, dominating the surrounding Oakland neighborhood, and standing in the middle of a large lawn with trees and smaller buildings at the edges.
