I used to busk on this corner … before this tape it was a couple chunks of 2×4 spray-painted silver I think this looks much better since the T’s been missing for over 5 years
Judging from Takashi’s link, they need to fix the “P” in PA now. Might I suggest using a piece of STEEL? I’m from Lebanon PA and we have plenty of that stuff available, so you’d think the home of the freaking Steelers would have a few scraps handy.

Totally agree with you, Cheri, someone probably saw that “t” and yelled, “Don’t you lookit my girlfriend like ‘at, letter t! Now I’m gonna hafta kick yer ass!” all slurred and Yinzer, and then continued stumbling down E. Carson, sad and alone.
wouldn’t silver duct tape have been better? not funnier, but – better.
I guess all they had on hand was black duct tape. Maybe it was packing tape taken from someone’s box they were mailing.
lol, leave it to Pittsburgh… Love my city!
Isn’t it just fantastic? my favorite part is pendot! This fix looks completely ligit compared to what they do to our roads

haha, here’s where it’s located on Google Maps Street View.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the post office went and screwed it all up, and sprung for a real metal T for the wall.
Makes me sad, it does.

this looked shopped i can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time
look on Craigslist for a new T. They should be able to pick one for less than a buck!!
The ‘P’ isn’t missing – that’s where two photos have been joined. Look at ‘United Sttes’, ‘Post Offce’and ‘Carson Staton’.

South Side!!! Miss ya, PGH :’-(
exactly.
Unbelievable. Only in my city!!! Love it!!!
Yep, that’s Pittsburgh in a nut shell.
A while ago, there was twine holding the wrought iron gate to the car on the Monongahela Incline. Yeah…..
Also, it probably wasn’t the post office that did it. It was most likely some drunk coming out of a bar and going to Tom’s Diner at 2 in the morning.
I love my city.

Am I the only one reminded of a certain Discworld novel here?
“Neither rain nor snow nor glo m of ni t can stay these
messengers about their duty.”
good enough for government work.
“The US Postal Service: We put the Pit in Pittsburgh”
@TMOH I was going to say it, but you did.
That’s not really funny……………
