If I lived in the Pittsburgh area...

choice turned me onto the Pittsburgh area and I found Forbe's Field to be interesting. It was a "complex" that fits a lot of the descriptions in the poem.
What I really liked about the area was the brick line (line with the clay) where the outfield wall used to be- bricks are primarily clay.

If I lived in the Pittsburgh area I would like to examine the brick line to see if any point of it ends in the grass or if maybe one end points to an interesting spot in the bushes, etc.

Very limited hiding spots there if going by the old rule of not messing the flower beds. Otherwise the spot next to the windy railing may be plausible. At least some resemblance to the image fog.

Thanks for the pics choice!

I like the theory on paper but I'm not seeing anywhere that I would want to chance a dig.

I live just outside of Pittsburgh, and the bricks you mentioned are the outline of the old Forbes Field. They are in the Oakland section of the city, a VERY busy section. The University of Pittsburgh is there, Carnegie Mellon University is there, the Carnegie Museums, Carnegie Library, Schenley Park, and Presbyterian Hospital all are in that immediate vicinity. People are near there almost constantly. It would be almost impossible to go there and bury or hide something and remain undetected, even at night.
