Wilkinsburg

Tags: Community

Wilkinsburg was once a place where those who were successful once lived. Now I look around and I realize that it has fallen down quite a bit. My neighborhood has potential to be back where it once was. As a community, we all have to contribute to bring it back as a place of pride and success.
