Text Appearing Before Image: THE FRICK BUILDING AND COURT HOUSEThese two great buildings loom across the horizon of every view of Pittsburgh. The Frick Building, twenty stories high, located on Fifth Avenue, Grant andDiamond Streets, is an artistic and massive triumph of architecture. Opposite on Grant Street stands the magnificent Allegheny County Court House and Jail, com-pleted April 17, 1888, at a cost of $2,600,000.

Text Appearing After Image: BRIDGE OF SIGHS AND COUNTY JAILThe Allegheny County Court House is connected with the County Jail by a covered passageway of stone arched over and across the street between. It ispopularly known as the Bridge of Sighs, a name suggested by its resemblance to the Venetian original. Solid walls of New England granite give a strikingimpression of strength to the Jail.
