Description
View of Thompson Run Road looking north at its intersection with Babcock Boulevard and Evergreen Road in Ross Township, Allegheny County, PA. On the right side of the photo Pat McBride's Restaurant and Supper Club can be seen. Parts of the white frame building were built in the early 1870s. Patrick J. McBride ran the restaurant from the 1930s through the 1970s. It was a popular restaurant and nightclub that featured live performers and dancing. Signs on the restaurant advertise chicken and an orchestra. Thompson Run flows under part of the building. A sign on the hill opposite the restaurant reads "Flaig's Lodge: serving sportsment around the globe, 821-1717, hunting license."
