From Pittsburgh Streets

George T. Fleming. "History from an old map: Story of Masson's map of Pittsburgh in 1805 continued—lots of Woods' survey of 1784 fronting on Fifth, Sixth and Seventh avenues considered—Fifth avenue was uninviting: Some transfers of part of lot 425 related—the Penn heirs' grants to the churches—far-seeing Pastor Barr—a historic triangle—why Grant street does not run a straight course." Pittsburgh Gazette Times, Aug. 13, 1922, sec. 5, p. 3. Newspapers.com 85917056.
