    Default Things to do in Pittsburgh...?

    I'm visiting Pittsburgh next week for 4 days so I need some suggestions from locals as to what I should check out while I'm in town. I'm from the Philadelphia area, so I don't know much about the city of Pittsburgh. I do know I'd like to check out the zoo on maybe Thursday.

    I'd appreciate any suggestions.
    Peace, Prosperity, and Liberty

    The zoo is cool. We also have the National Aviary and if you are into plants and flowers, there is the Phipps Conservatory.

    If you have time, you should head to Grandview Ave to check out the overloooks and take a ride on the incline.

    Pinmanti Brothers for the famous sandwich.


    Side Side for the night life.

    Check out the Civic Arena before it's gone. It is a piece of work. Heinz field is cool.

    We also have a museum over in Oakland. There is the Warhol Museum.

    Without knowing where your interest lie, it's hard to give recommendations.

    If coming down I79 you could hit the Gove City outlet mall, Wendell August Forge (gift shop and tours available) and "Primanti Brothers". OK forget the mall.

    Hmmm. I'm beginning to think Primanti Bros. is a must.

    While you are over at Primanti Bros be sure and look around. I hear there is a pretty cool town called Pittsburgh around there somewhere!
