Started in the late 1800's by wealthy industrialists, The Duquesne Club sits in downtown Pittsburgh, PA. A place to eat, sleep, conduct business and do anything else that wealthy people do. The place is filled with beautiful works of art. Some interiors for your viewing pleasure. a900- Zeiss 85mm 1.4 and Minolta 28-70 2.8 G

Thanks Doc and Greg. I was fortunate to be invited to stay the night. I certainly don't have the bank account to be there otherwise. A few more.

Lovely places, JBTaylor. : )
The club feeling is there in all the indoor shots and I agree that the exteriors are very British.
Thanks for sharing,
Yildiz
