Description
This house originally stood near the corner of Lothrop and Fifth Ave where the Falk Clinic currently stands. The building was moved for the clinic to be built. The clinic was founded in 1928 by Maurice and Leon Falk with a gift of $900,000 for the University. It became a center for the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. The house is shown being put onto rollers so it could be moved. This view was taken across Fifth Avenue from the corner of Meyran.
