If you grew up in Polish Hill, look for your old block. This aerial view shows the neighborhood in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, built from modern data with a vintage feel. Rows of red buildings fill the slopes, with green hills around them. West Penn Park adds a green field beside the homes.
Brereton Street, Dobson Street and West Penn Park
On this map you'll find Brereton Street, Dobson Street, Herron Avenue, Bigelow Boulevard, West Penn Park, Bloomfield Bridge, Melwood Avenue, Finland Street, Paulowna Street, Pulawski Way, Hancock Street, and more. Each red shape is a building, so zoom in on the preview and look for yours.
Polish Hill's slopes give this view its shape. Small red buildings sit in close rows, while green ground fills the steep gaps. At West Penn Park, the bright green field stands out beside those blocks. You can take in the park and the homes together, then pick out a single building.
Across the river on the South Side, a Polish Army marker at 97 South 18th Street tells a piece of Pittsburgh's Polish story. The Polish Army historical marker records a speech there on April 3, 1917. I. J. Paderewski spoke to delegates at a Polish Falcons convention. His speech began a drive to recruit a Polish army in the United States. Its aim was to fight with the Allies for an independent Poland. The marker places that hall at 97 South 18th Street.
