These are so wonderfully...Another great blog entry! These are so wonderfully designed, but in such disrepair. Makes one wonder how they came to be this way! How in the world do such unique and artistic houses like these fall into such disrepair? The word restore scares me. Restore as in restore them to their original condition with modern bathrooms and kitchens sensitive to the original intent of the architecture would be great. But what if they're not restored, but remodeled in a completely insensitive manner as I've seen happen to so many other buildings in Pittsburgh over the years. The other pressing thing on my mind regarding these is that your blog states that Scheibler originally designed these for middle class tenants, but will they be restored for upper middle class or remodeled for low income. In either of those cases, I wouldn't stand a chance of ever living there. In one way or another, I just hope that they are saved and not just simply torn down.schifino2012https://www.blogger.com/profile/11708110109755880134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2471929776364246183.post-83671865582187842672013-05-06T08:43:23.950-07:002013-05-06T08:43:23.950-07:00Thanks for commenting!

Almost exited my Sonata to take pictures. But I was alone and I also heard that they were designated for restoration. Maybe better to wait for images that can make almost anyone appreciate these structures. <br />Anyway...hope we both get to see them in much better condition.
