Looking in other people’s houses can be fun. And in southwestern
Pennsylvania, it doesn’t matter if you live in a city neighborhood
like Friendship or in rural Washington County, you can find
wonderful houses not far away that reveal much about the history,
the culture and the people in this comfy corner of the state.
In HOUSES AROUND HERE, we take you to ordinary houses as well as
to extraordinary dwellings. We travel up to Chatham Village on Mount
Washington, check out some cool old castles in Aspinwall, and find
out about the history of Swift Homes that were so successful in the
1950s. We look at some old company towns, including Marianna, PA.
Near Prosperity, we stop in at Moon Lorn, an odd sort of country
cottage built by the artist Malcolm Parcell, and we visit Henry Clay
Frick’s mansion called Clayton to see what we can see.
In and around Pittsburgh, the variety of houses, their old charms
and their modern quirks, help make this area an interesting,
affordable and familiar place to call home. Now with over 40 minutes
