Tourist Trap: Fort Pitt Museum. It looks...

    • Fort Pitt Museum. It looks like it has not been maintained for a long time. When I visited almost none of the exhibits worked and almost all were badly neglected/damaged. Lights were broken, walls were cracked, sections were roped off as unsafe, etc.
    The Fort Pitt Blockhouse is a small retail outlet. Nothing worth seeing. (Look at the picture and save yourself a visit)
    Parking is very high.
    UPDATE: THE MUSEUM WILL BE RENOVATED & REOPENED SOON- I WILL KEEP THIS LOCATION LISTING UNTIL THE 'CHANGES' ARE SEEN. Also note: The blockhouse and museum are two different places, which have different owners/operators.
