Description
Pittsburgh - Cathedral of Learning in mono by Richard Reeve
A towering gothic-style skyscraper stands against a clear sky, its facade adorned with architectural details and vertical lines that enhance its height. The black and white photograph emphasizes the contrast and the stark, almost sculptural quality of the building's structure.
The Cathedral of Learning at Pittsburgh University, Pennsylvania stands 42 story high and was built between 1926 and 1934. It is the second-tallest gothic-style building in the world, after the Woolworth Building in New York City.
This astounding landmark contains a 2000 square meter 4-story high vaulted gothic study and event hall and is the tallest educational building in the Western Hemisphere.
