Stop by Pittsburgh’s "front porch," the Emerald View Park that loops around and through the Mt. Washington, Duquesne Heights and Allentown neighborhoods. This impressive urban byway preserves a unique combination of natural beauty and manmade architecture. See some of Pittsburgh’s most beautiful outdoor scenery including rivers, lush green hills, and rolling vistas set against the city’s skyline.
Spend some time exploring the outdoor jewel of Pittsburgh’s North Side. Riverview Park offers an extensive network of trails through its dense woodlands and dramatically steep hills for hikers, joggers, and the occasional horseback ride. Riverview is also home to the Allegheny Observatory, a space-themed playground, a visitor’s center, a swimming pool, ball field and many picnic areas.
Catch a show at the Rex Theater. What kind of show? That depends on what kind of entertainment you are in the mood for. See everything from a typical concert to an outrageous cabaret and peepshow. Live music options include local, regional and a few national bands playing anything from smooth jazz to rock ‘n roll—and the fully stocked bar keeps the nightlife going as well.
