Anthony Weiner's NY Mayor Website Mistakenly Featured Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Former Congressman Anthony Weiner is running for Mayor of New York City, but his campaign website mistakenly featured Pittsburgh as his backdrop.

Multiple twitter users, political blogs, and even the Washington Post have picked up on the background mistake, which has now been fixed.

The bridge in the photo looked like the Roberto Clemente bridge, and many of the buildings looked similar, especially the BNY Mellon Center.

Weiner was forced out of office after a twitter photo of his personal business surfaced.

UPDATE:

Just moments after posting this story, the Weiner for Mayor website was changed to this backdrop.
