From 1909 to 1970 Forbes Field was domicile to the Pittsburgh Pirates. This baseball game green was also the outset domicile of the Pittsburgh Steelers football game team. In 1971 the green was demolished too cleared for purpose past times the University of Pittsburgh.
At some betoken during the outset few years later on its structure the Detroit Publishing Company took five photographs of Forbes Field which, when stitched together, supply a panoramic sentiment of the baseball game stadium. You tin zoom inwards too pan some this panorama on my interactive Forbes Field map.
I used Microsoft's Image Composite Editor to exercise the panorama. To plow the panorama into an interactive map I adapted the Non-geographical Maps instance from the Leaflet tutorials. This allows you lot to easily exercise an interactive map from whatever icon or photograph. You tin also sentiment the master five photographs taken past times the Detroit Publishing Co. on the Library of Congress website.
If you lot similar this interactive sentiment of historical Pittsburgh you lot mightiness also similar the panoramic maps I created of a General View of Detroit 1908 too Indianapolis 1907.
