Mexican War Streets, Bellevue & More Fall House Tours
Just because you're not actively house hunting doesn't mean you can't be nebby and wonder what other people's homes look like. Annie Perri Cole, one half of the popular Instagram account @housesofpittsburgh, is an expert at going inside a Pittsburgh house and getting the good stories — from who it was built for to how the current owners got enormous furniture up a fancy spiral staircase. She joins us to share her itinerary for Pittsburgh’s North Side home tours this fall, plus explain how the Frick revamped its tour of the renowned Clayton House — and why the changes matter.
Get tickets for the Mexican War Streets tour on September 15, the Observatory Hill tour on September 28, and the Bellevue tour on October 19. Plus, check out @housesofpittsburgh’s peek into a spectacular Bellevue home that’ll be part of this year’s tour.
