Location
Get Directions
At the point where the Monongahela River and the Allegheny River meet to form the Ohio River rests downtown Pittsburgh, the heartbeat of the city. The terrain, consisting of rivers, steep hills, and a distinct combination of numerous bridges make this a naturally scenic city. Downtown Pittsburgh is a lively area filled with shops, restaurants, museums, and theaters. It is also home to Point Park University and Point State Park, a National Historic Landmark as the location of Fort Duquesne, the Fort Pitt Museum, and the Fort Pitt Blockhouse (built in 1764).
The unique design of downtown Pittsburgh offers residents pocket-like neighborhoods that display its architectural heritage and steel city legacy. A variety of dining and entertainment options line the streets below mid to high rise offices and residential towers. No matter what time of the day or night, you can find something to do in this friendly sports-oriented city.
