Fred Rogers has always occupied a special place in the hearts of Pittsburghers. In addition, he now occupies a place on the city's North Shore, where a 7,000-pound bronze sculpture of "Mister Rogers" faces the Pittsburgh skyline. After the unveiling, a number of people hung around to take pictures and admire the sculpture. Joanne Rogers, Fred's wife, was interviewed by a videographer. Mr. Rogers is depicted sitting down and tying his sneakers, as he did at the beginning of each episode of "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood."
