Top 9 Neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PA)

October 1, 2021 Velvet Mowry

Pittsburgh has been remade and reimagined. Think 24 miles of riverfront trails, beautiful parks and historic attractions. Home to 90 neighborhoods, the ‘Burgh feels authentic and unpretentious. No visit is complete without a trip to the Strip District or PNC Park, a ride up the Duquesne Incline or a stop at The Andy Warhol Museum. Architecture buffs love Pittsburgh for the amazing downtown buildings. Hollywood producers, do, too—the city has even been called the “Hollywood of the East."

The Candle Lab

My adult son took me as a Christmas gift. This was fun, interactive, creative and well organized. I plan to return and bring others to enjoy it. My husband came along and was reluctant to participate but he even enjoyed smelling all the scents.

Strip District

Located on a narrow strip of land in a flood plain, scenic neighborhood features historic points of interest such as Senator John Heinz Regional History Center and Pennsylvania Railroad Fruit Auction Building.

Reviewed By JamesDR1117 - Fayetteville, United States

Went to the Strip District again on a family weekend outing. I live the multicultural shops and restaurants. Lots of great things to do, buy, taste and see. Good prices in the shops. Gotta always go the Pennsylvania Macaroni Company, Primanti Bro’s, and get a cannoli fresh from the vendors on the street near their bakery, My Sweet Lilly. The place has it all. Must see area if you live in Pittsburgh, passing through or are visiting. I’ll definitely be back.
