"Arms of a sinewy city stretch up and out as dawn rouses Pittsburgh. Industrial muscle grew naturally here, fed by nearby coalfields and river-linked markets. The Allegheny, foreground, and the Monongahela, above, merge into the Ohio at right where skyscrapers merge into the Golden Triangle. Before a cleanup drive, streetlights burned at noon in the 'Smoky City'."
