The Allegheny and Monongahela rivers converge and form the Ohio River at Point State Park in downtown Pittsburgh. Our namesake comes from one of the city’s 90 neighborhoods. Squirrel Hill, a beautiful area on the eastern edge of the city limits, is home to the largest of the city’s five city parks, Frick Park. Established from land bequeathed upon Henry Clay Frick’s death in 1919, the park didn’t open until 1927. Over the years it has expanded and now encompasses 644 acres, or roughly 1 square mile. One of the most tranquil and quiet places in the city, the park is home to woodpeckers, deer, black snakes, and many other creatures.
Product Info
Our highly-accurate topographic maps are made by cutting out layers of wood and then stacking them one on top of the other to reveal the true-to-life relief of the landscape. This one of a kind map is hand painted to show both the tree cover and fields inside the park’s boundary
This map is available unframed with sawtooth hangers attached or framed on a white backer in a wood frame without glass so the viewer can get up close to the topographical details.
Because these maps are handmade out wood, we encourage you to avoid hanging them in direct sunlight or potentially damp areas.
