Pittsburgh Cemeteries

The Art and Architecture of Death

Williams Mausoleum, South Side Cemetery

- Posted in South Side Cemetery by

Old Pa Pitt is going to call this style Romanesque because of the medieval columns, rusticated stone, and rounded lintel; but it is perhaps a bit of a mixed metaphor in style. Like most of the mausoleums in the unguarded South Side Cemetery, it has lost its bronze doors, which have been replaced with ugly concrete blocks.
