  • This photo shows the rear side of Boone's house, located on Allegheny River Boulevard, then Oakmont Avenue. There is a set of stairs climbing the outside from the ground up to the attic level. In the backyard of Boone's house, there is a basketball hoop, along with quite a lot of debris. Behind the house are the railroad tracks, which Oakmonters walk along to study the flood's progress. Over 130 buildings were damaged in Oakmont alone.
