  • Description
  • In the foreground is the old Greyhound Bus Terminal as seen from Grant Street near the Pennsylvania Station in downtown Pittsburgh. The bus terminal was used during the 1940s by thousands of servicemen traveling through Pittsburgh. Behind the terminal are the Gulf Building and beyond it the Koppers Building. The bus terminal was later demolished to make way for a new Federal Reserve Building and then, adjacent to the Federal Reserve Building, a federal office building at the intersection of Grant Street and Liberty Avenue.
