Something About Oakland
12/6/2000 | 1h 29m 17sVideo has Closed Captions
From 2000, Rick Sebak explores the neighborhood of Oakland.
From 2000, Oakland started when Mary Schenley donated land for a park. Soon Andrew Carnegie built a great library and museums nearby. There was a grand hotel, a spectacular greenhouse, and a beloved old ballpark Forbes Field. We visit the Bug Rooms, the murals and Music Hall at the Carnegie Museums. We race through Schenley Park, stop at the Pittsburgh Playhouse, and visit shops along Craig St.
