If I were to be in Pittsburgh and had exhausted all of the urban flora picturing possibilities - don't know how that would be possible other than just saying, "Ok. Enough is enough." - the other ubiquitous referent for picturing making would undoubtedly be bridges or, in my case, under bridges.

Pittsburgh reputedly has more bridges than Venice, Italy. It is known by the moniker "The City Of Bridges". And that is very appropriate inasmuch as, according to a 2006 study, there are 446 bridges in Pittsburgh.

Whatever the number of bridges, there can be no doubt that the opportunity to make pictures under bridges is just around every corner.
