    I’m always so excited to see you when you are in Pittsburgh, showing the sights many of us Pittsburgers haven’t ever seen! I’ve been living here 45 years and have never seen the beautiful Heritage Trail…it was fun following you and Mat around the downtown area. FYI…make sure to come to Pgh from June to the middle of September if you want to see all the fountains on! It’s a fun time to come here from June 4th-15th when the 3Rivers Arts festival is going on @ Point State Park. For SURE you will see ALL the fountains turned on! Thanks for sharing your Pittsburgh adventures with us! Always love them!

    JP, You crossed the 16th street bridge, now named the in the beginning of your video. Did you notice that the statues on the top of the ends of the bridge were different colors? Here's a little history on why. Today, the North Shore-side globes are greenish-blue, while the Strip District side appears tarnished and darker. Structures like this made of copper or bronze naturally change color over time, developing a patina. In the 1970s, there was a movement to restore or update public art. The city actually went in and painted brown, some sort of lacquer to preserve the artwork from the elements. They did this to many of the statues around town. At the Sixteenth Street Bridge, crews painted the globes on the Strip District side with the brown lacquer, and planned to do the same on the North Shore, until some local historians and sculptors intervened so they stopped what they were doing midstream, and here we are today. In this case, the differences in coloration weren’t caused by air pollution just some misguided art restoration. It's said that it’s unlikely they’ll ever reverse the painting, mostly because the county hasn’t embarked on a project of that size, and likely won’t in the near future. Until then, the armillary spheres on each side will always be a little different. GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS!!

    What an awesome adventure! Fun time on the scooters! Hopefully some day or time you will be able to catch seeing the Water Steps working! I think that would be so cool to see! I can imagine that was a great experience to be able to see the inside of the USS Requin Submarine, some great history! So neat when you stood under the Vietnam Monument, it did look like a spider web, I thought that right away! Your milkshake sure looked good, that would have been my choice too! lol You guys sure had a fun trip! Great video JP, I really enjoyed it, thank you!

    Great video JP. I love going to Pittsburgh for the trains there are many good places to watch trains in and around the city, if you go down the Ohio about 35 to 40 miles you'd run into NS's (former Conrail) Conway yard.
    The CSX train you seen and videod wasn't coal, it was mtys headed back to Demler yard just outside of McKeesport, for the Union RR to take back to Clarion to the coke works.

    Hi Jay, so many beautiful sights along the river, the bridges were pretty cool to see although I swear those 2 yellow bridges look like they were made from Meccano lol. An awesome adventure, a shame that again you didn't get to see the fountain going but the sights more than made up for it and you got a milkshake which looked amazing btw. I loved the photo's, it was really clever how you mixed colour and black & white, a great effect.

    That was an amazing video learn so much I've never been to that city. Love the choice of Music especially the slow jam dance at the end. Reminds me of something that you could play while cruising slowly on the highway or Countryside but it has the potential to become a more aggressive in a remix. I'm wondering about that submarine you said it was anchored. When there's flooding I wonder if they can allow it to float because of the water goes beyond 12 ft the sub's going to be underwater. As always stay safe, healthy and God bless you and your family and subscribers. 🙂🇺🇲✝️❤
