She was clearly in the military.

For a few minutes around lunchtime Tuesday, much of the political spectrum met outside an Allegheny Valley polling place. There was disagreement — and neighborly kindness.

Pittsburgh City Paper launches program to turn old newspaper distribution boxes into public art

Pittsburgh City Paper has launched its “Adopt a Box” program, converting former newspaper distribution boxes into public art pieces across local neighborhoods. Many of the boxes had been discarded after the publication temporarily suspended operations at the start of the year. Under the new initiative, decorated boxes are being reinstalled in public areas, including one located at the corner of Forbes and Murray Avenues in Squirrel Hill. Artist Phil Seth created the first five boxes for the initiative. Organizers plan to expand the project across the city and surrounding communities as more sponsors join.
