I really like well done graffiti. Do you know of any “hot spots” in pittsburgh area? I’m pretty new to getting around in Pennsylvania so if you do know of something…a cross street would be helpful. I just like the art of it all. Thanks. ---

The East Busway has some really good graffiti. You’re a little too late to ask, but the Armstrong Cork Building in the Strip District had some of the best work I have ever seen. It has since been turned into apartments/lofts. There is also a bit in the South Side along the tracks. ---

South Side near the tracks x2. Used to be a really good piece there that was at least 100’ long.

peep this guys work from Italy-PEETA[http://www.peeta.net/](http://www.peeta.net/) look at the walls section. As for local, take a look at the Jail Trail (runs inbetween the opposing sides of the parkway east) accessible from Second Ave at the end of the Hot Metal Bridge. Loads of people tag up those walls, but there is a 100’ section protected by the city due to the skill demonstrated by those artists. Some are fucking killer. ---
