As a proud former Pittsburgher (still proud of Pgh, but now in New Orleans) I can tell you all which building holds the world record of largest-as opposed to tallest- university or educational building in the world. That would be the main building of the University of Moscow. The exact dimensions escape me, but a Google search should tell that tale. Try the Guiness Book of W orld Records site.

The buildings seen between Pitt and CMU are the Carnegie Museum, Carnegie Library, Carnegie Art Museum and Carnegie Music Hall (Andrew Carnegie made his fortune in Pittsburgh, and it shows). Directly south of the Cathedral of Learning is a small black L-shpaed building and a grassy area. This is the site where the Pittsburg Pirate's Forbes Field once stood. Home plate is imbedded in the floor there, in its original position.
