Nestled on Liberty Avenue, this statuesque building was erected in the 1920s by MGM owner James Clark. It housed Warner Brothers for a time in a penthouse suite that included a viewing room and eventually came to be known as an enclave for diamond jewelers, many of whom are still thriving on the lower floors of the building! Today, residents come in and out of the ornately decorated corridors, watch baseball games over at PNC Park from the rooftop deck (yes, the view is that good), and simply soak in all the joie de vivre the city offers right outside their door.
