I would turn the top 5 floors of The Cathedral of Learning into my penthouse suite Realistically, I'd buy one of the pricier condos in the new 3PNC when it's complete.

I would also like to live downtown, but I would live in the granite building. One of the most coolest looking buildings in the Golden Triangle if you ask me. I wonder what lofts are going for there. Their website is down.

I'd love to live in Bradford Woods. It's the closest feeling place to Marin (CA) I've ever felt back there.

In reality however, I think we'd end up in Shadyside. I don't think hubby could handle the out in the middle of nowhere-ish of Bradford Woods. And as we're doing this in retirement, it would be more of an easy walk around town to pick up the odds and ends one needs, and maybe grab a cup of coffee every once in a while.

City: One of those sweet mansions in Shadyside or Squirrel Hill... or one of the newer condos on Mt. Washington

Suburbs: I really like those homes on the golf course in Treesdale (Pine Township?) http://k53.pbase.com/u16/jabomano/up...alebehindP.jpg

I like the idea of the Cathedral of Learning penthouse, but it would be a pain to take the dog outside and to mow the lawn.

I like living in the East End so I'd want a house there with an unobstructed downtown view for fireworks nights (maybe Greenfield?).

Since money's not an option I'd hire a lawn care service, of course. Oh, and I have a cat

If it falls out of the penthouse, does a 550 foot fall take up all 9 lives at once?

The Murdoch Farms area of Squirrel Hill. Big, beautiful houses, brick streets, huge trees with a canopy over the streets, and no above ground power lines. Looks like an eastern and much classier Beverly Hills.
