[edit] Photo
Most of my family are from Latrobe. I took this picture a few years back. I realize it's not Chamber of Commerce quality, but it does have a certain honesty about it in my opinion. Comments? If any native Latrobians would disagree, I'd love to see your photos. 70.95.217.129 03:49, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- I think it suits the town well. That's the kind of scene I think of when I remember Latrobe. --Vyran 07:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

- Since you two seem to be Latrobians, I have a question: Doing some research in this area of the state, I'm trying to locate Chambers Mill, which should be close to Uniontown (or an easy day's ride from there by horse in the 1790s, anyway), but I'm having no luck. One not-entirely-dependable source says Latrobe was built on the site or location of the "much earlier Chambers Mill, almost in the woods." Can't confirm that statement, either. Do either of you remember this possible bit of local history? Thanks! --Michael K. Smith 14:55, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Issue with the Caption
This is really picky, but the caption on the picture says "Spring Street, downtown." Now, I think I know where that picture was taken (isn't it one street up from the intersection with Alexandria?), and I wouldn't really call that "downtown." Sorry for being picky (and of course maybe I'm wrong about where it was taken, or about what should count as "downtown"). --Bryan12603 06:41, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Latrobe is no longer the home of Rolling Rock. Devtrash 23:53, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
