Alternate Vision

Bird's eye view of the Carnegie Mellon campus area. Most of the greenery you see is either Schenley park or Frick park, two of Pittsburgh's well known outdoor attractions. My apartment is on the other end of Schenley park (top right of image). It's not uncommon to see deer in the wooded area surrounding my apartment. The other day I saw one run into someone's backyard.

And this is where I have spent many a day (and night) slaving - Hammerschlag Hall ..home to many distinguished programs and also my favorite - the green roof project. My office is directly under the roof.
View from the other end. The University of Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning in the background. And there you have it - your moment of zen.
