re: #82 Decatur Deb

We used to live a couple blocks from the main Heinz plant, had the best air pollution in 1950s Pittsburgh. It never became revolting.

Interesting, when I was growing up in Pgh, I always assumed that the Heinz plant was located along Carson Street near the bottom of the Mon Incline.

Of course, in between people telling me stories in the 1940s about having to stop and get out of the car to look for the white line in the middle of the road, I was always told that it wasn’t pollution, it was “ground fog”.
