Exploring Pittsburgh’s Hidden alleys in the Strip District can be a great way to discover the history and culture of a city. An explorer can find hidden gems that are off the beaten path as well. Pittsburgh’s alleys are steaming with life! Strays looking for food, workers sitting on the back steps taking a break or emptying the trash, having a smoke. And the smells! All these different sensory experiences can make alley exploring fun!
I have discovered that alleys are a photographer’s dream! Texture, color, interesting light, architectural finds and unusual objects.
Another interesting fact about alleys is that are canvases for street artists! The artwork is expressive and colorful.
