KD Country: Remembering Clemente

Safe at home: Preserving the Clemente legacy.
|
April 5, 2008
|
|
I'm standing with Duane Rieder, the local keeper of Roberto Clemente's flame, in the spot where Lou Gehrig once slept.
We're in the old Pittsburgh Engine House No. 25, at 3339 Penn Ave., in Lawrenceville. Rieder, a professional photographer, uses this building as his studio, and he's now converted it into the Roberto Clemente Museum (with the blessing of Clemente's widow, Vera). But the building had ties to baseball history long before Rieder bought it. The Oct. 5, 1927, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that while Gehrig was in town for the World Series, the Iron Horse sneaked off to Engine House No. 25 "while the rest of the Yankees hobnob[bed] with the rich of Pittsburgh." It's fitting that the building itself bridges two players who were so great and whose deaths were so tragic. (Clemente died in a plane crash while trying to help earthquake victims; Gehrig, of course, died from the nervous-system disease that bears his name today.)

Owner and Chef Geno Giguere grew up in Maine, but he came to Pittsburgh during the summer of 1997, met Lisa (now his wife), and never left. Geno's may be a new restaurant -- it opened less than a year ago -- but it feels like it has been in Lawrenceville for a generation already. Lisa provides that Pittsburgh connection -- she's had family living in the neighborhood for almost 100 years.

Fe Gallery exhibit leaves paper trail
