Downtown Pittsburgh

by Travmad - last update: Jun 10, 2007

City of steel, well used to be.

Weekend getaways

I live about an hour and a half drive from Pittsburgh and surprising enough I don't go there all that often. But I highly recommend it the people are friendly and the downtown can be walked easy enough. Have a look at the pics we took over the weekend trip.

Bridges, Bridges, tunnels!

 Sounds wonderful! My husband will be joining the Air Reserve Unit there in Pittsburgh so we be spending one weekend a month in Pittsburgh. This sounds like a place we will have to check out!

 Beer and more beer -- my kind of tips! Pittsburgh is indeed a great hockey town. I hope Boston gets a pro hockey team someday...

 Pittsburgh is one of my favorite American cities - loved the Strip, especially on Saturdays!
