Randyland Randy Gilson on Today, Pittsburgh PA North Side


This is a good piece on Randy Gilson of Randyland on the North Side of Pittsburgh, PA, link here. It could have had more video on Randyland itself though.

Now if we can just get foundations and deep pockets to pay more attention they might learn a thing or two from Randy and help him move forward with his plans.

Randy is an amazing person and his vision is vibrant.

On January 15, 2004 The Pittsburgh City Paper covered a story here, The Pittsburgh Tribune Review did a August 18, 2007 article on him here and Pop City did a piece on him Feb 6, 2008 here.

A July 2007 Chicago Tribune article can be found here as well. The video here.
