Yesterday I had the chance to go to @iheartradio ❤️ again to film another fun segment for the @skincentermd You guys have to check out my instastories for sneak peeks of the filming (and some funny bloopers at the end! ) Thank you @abbykatx for being such a great host, showing us around the studio & keeping things fun! P.s this photo is from last time because we were on the radio floor and I wasn’t able to snap another pic! #iheartradio #radiostation #skincentermd
Looking north up Grant Street from the intersection with Fifth Avenue on Monday, October 14, 1912.
Two giant blocks on the left were razed to make way for the Union Trust Building, completed in 1917, and the William Penn Hotel, first section completed in 1916. (On the 1910 Map only 1 block had been cleared) Down Grant Street you can also see the tallest structure in the photograph, the First Evangelical Lutheran Church’s steeple. Reaching 170 feet into the smog, it has since been dwarfed by almost every building along Grant Street, especially across street, where the Steel Tower stands 671 feet taller. /

Hope y’all had the best long weekend! took a little sabbatical from social media to spend time with my family that I don’t get to see often enough - we had the best time eating our way through Pittsburgh! also went to a psychic medium for the first time and that experience was LIFE-CHANGING and all in all WILD - could not recommend it enough! how did you spend your MDW?!
