Travel about four miles west of Pittsburgh – along the Allegheny River – and you will arrive at the dynamic neighborhood of Lower Lawrenceville. This community has an energetic commercial district on Butler Street, with residential homes and apartments nestled along its smaller side roads.
Many art organizations call Lower Lawrenceville home. Learn how to throw pottery on a wheel at Kiln N Time, or gather friends for a painting extravaganza at Paint Monkey. Spend the weekend exploring local shops along Butler Street, and then indulge in a delicious crepe at Geppetto Café. Naturoll Creamery has hand-rolled ice cream batter for your enjoyment. And later, stop by Tender Bar & Kitchen for a late-night snack served in a historic bank.
