Point State Park is a Pennsylvania state park which is located at the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, forming the Ohio River. The Park offers stunning views of the city and is within walking distance of Downtown. To find yourself near Pittsburgh Sports stadiums like Heinz Field & PNC Park as well as a handful of lively restaurants & bars, you can take a walk from the park across the Roberto Clemente Bridge to Pittsburgh's North Shore.
The Strip, as it's called, is foodie heaven and as authentic as it is fun. Locals love it for its low, low prices and tremendous selections. The one-half square mile shopping district is chock full of ethnic grocers, produce stands, meat and fish markets and sidewalk vendors.
In just under 10 years the Lawrenceville neighborhood went from being one you likely never stepped foot in, to becoming a hipster mecca, to being so trendy it is beyond hipster, and is now one of the most popular neighborhoods in all of Pittsburgh for visitors with all interests. Lawrenceville has grown to be a shopping, eating, and drinking hot spot, and worth checking out while you're in town. We have included an eating, drinking, and attraction guide to Lawrenceville if you choose to wander away from downtown. Cheers!
