i like the bird in the first photo more than the second – but very cool looking up shots- and I wonder if this is the same Kaufmann’s that had the department store in Western New York -hm
I really appreciate all of your photos of Pittsburgh. I haven’t lived in The Burgh since 1969, and I really miss Pittsburgh. In particular, this photo means a lot for to me because my father worked for about 20 years at Kaufmann’s warehouse on the North Side. In fact, that warehouse was located approximately where Three Rivers Stadium is now located. I remember the Kaufmann’s clock; I guess everyone from Pittsburgh does. My mother used to take me to Kaufmann’s to buy clothes for school because we had an employee discount. Ah, nostalgia! Thanks for the Pittsburgh photos.
Yes, Field’s is gone, too, but its clock remains. People still resent Macy’s for buying the flagship store on State Street and renaming it. They’ll shop at Macy’s everywhere but that one store. 🙂

I’ll have to research that – thank you Yvette
I like the contrast between the bird and the clock – living vs man made and free moving vs fixed 🙂
Aww thanks Rainee for visiting and making time to write
Cool pictures! Miss the old Kaufmann’s!!
I love the Kaufmann’s clock!
So many times I’ve met friends “under the clock”. Love this post.
Thanks Sylvia. I had jury duty downtown

So glad you enjoy the Pittsburgh scenes and thanks for writing and sharing your memories, Ken.
Very grand!
Yes it’s very elegant
Beautiful clock, Ruth. The pigeon seems to have laid claim to it. 🙂
Probably leaving a deposit
😅
I have never been to Kaufmann’s – are there any still open?
Growing up, the department store we visited in Chicago was Marshall Field’s. Now no more.
No defunct,no more holiday windows

Macy’s took over that Kaufmanns store bldg and that Macy’s is GONE. The store is empty
