Dar N. • March 2, 2013"Close to the Pitt campus, Phipps Conservatory is a Victorian-style steel and glass structure that has been transformed into one the world’s most energy efficient and sustainable conservatories."
Erik • September 26, 2013Amazing structure with a fascinating history. Tours are long (over 2 hours) so be warned. Was lecture-y, but friendly, and enjoyable if you appreciate the science, history, and pittsburgh connections.
Susan G. • March 16, 2017Great place for a hike and a picnic. My kids love it, and my love it because it wears them out. Lol
Harry B. • October 23, 2017Fantastic view of the city skyline. Great place for outdoor weddings. I'm conducting one in just a few minutes. My wife and I did our wedding here 21 years ago.
Lloyd D. • April 4, 2016We love this place. It's like a museum, but just a little smaller. Plenty of history of the area, sports memorabilia, and Pittsburgh Spirit!
Noise • May 13, 2010Milky Way has the only falafel I've ever liked. And all of the bubble drinks at Asia Tea House are pretty good, but Honeydew, Mango and Taro are my favorites.
Jenya S. • August 9, 2017Beautiful park. Gorgeous views over Pittsburgh, in particular at night. Real nice olympic size track and plenty of hard surface tennis courts. Deer is everywhere!
Bikabout • September 20, 2016The amazing fountain serves as a scenic escape from the city and the trailhead for the Great Allegheny Passage, a 340 mile trail to DC!

Ian K. • October 23, 2011If you want an awesome place to study that has a good, quiet atmosphere on a weeknight, head up to the honors college and relax.
Addie C. • April 6, 2013Love this place for a weekend morning run. Be sure to say hi to everyone you pass, though! Running etiquette.
MCG Jazz • October 13, 2011All the hot spots are popping up on the North Shore. Check out MCG Jazz! You can walk there along the River Trail!
Shelley O. • July 28, 2018Love everything about PNC park. I love my Pirates and baseball. PNC is always a good time. Beautiful views This is an excellent place for photography
Brian S. • October 9, 2010Definitely worth the price. The ride itself is not the attraction though. The view of the city is. Don't miss the great food in this neighborhood either.
Don D. • October 15, 2015Can't say enough about THIS Park! THE ABSOLUTELY BEST VIEW OF THE CITY! HANDS DOWN! GREAT LITTLE PARK!!!
Mae A. • June 25, 2015Nice experience. Nice view of Pittsburgh while going up the incline and once you reached the top!
