      When did you guys come to Pittsburgh JP? I saw that it was before St. Patrick's Day but was it this past March 2021?
      I grew up loving P]? I grew up loving the burgh. If you don't like to eat than Pittsburgh wouldn't be the place to go. Pittsburgh people love ro not cook but eat also. If you ever want to go where the Pittsburgh Pens used to practice I know where it is and I was there and didn't even know it until after I was there. My favorite radio personally person owns a restaurant in the same building.
      It's called Bubba's Gourmet Burgers. They have awesome food. It's in Canonsburg, PA

    Once again, thank you for showing me my old hometown. I went to the Stanley Theatre back in the early 80's and saw Peter, Paul and Mary...where have the years gone ? I also loved being on the Incline. I remember riding it as a child, and then seeing it through my son's eyes many years later when he was a child. Other things of interest for a return trip...Primanti Brothers Restaurant, Mellon Square Park, The Pittsburgh Zoo, Phipps Conservatory, a ride through "The Tubes", Kennywood Park...the list goes on. As I said in the beginning, a very heartfelt Thank You.

That was so neat when the subway was emerging under the freight train!

    Glad you enjoyed your visit to Pgh! I live about 20 miles north of the city and took my kids on a mini staycation a couple years ago. We loved going the the Strip District and Station Square. My favorite thing is riding the inclines. The lower lobbies are so vintage and gorgeous with the dark wood and old ceiling fans. Pgh really has so many beautiful old buildings along with a nice mix of new ones. If you ever come back in the summer, do a Duck tour that leaves from Station Square and takes you thru downtown, across the Allegheny river and then goes into the river and you can get great shots of the fountain at the Point with downtown in the background.

    Pittsburgh is my favorite city. There's so much stuff crammed into a relatively small area. You definitely still get that big city vibe, but with about half the hassle of NYC or Philly. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History is amazing and well worth a visit. You can easily burn a whole day there. The Heinz History Center is very cool too plus it has a small super-detailed O-gauge diorama that is seriously impressive. You've also got the National Aviary and the Phipps Botanical Gardens to get your fix of exotic birds and flowers. Craft beer galore, amazing restaurants. (I go to Pamela's every time I'm out there for corned beef hash) Just north of the city in Gibsonia is the Western PA Model Railroad Museum. Right up your alley.

    I have to say, that there are many fountains downtown that were missed.. There is Point State Park, Mellon Square, USS Plaza, Gateway Center, BNY-Mellon Bank, and PPG Place plus several more.

    I live not too far away and enjoyed my trips to Pittsburgh in years past. To “The Messiah” concert and the museum years ago. Thanks for sharing! I am interested in the man preaching but I couldn’t hear what he was saying too well and the closed captioning didn’t get it all. But I hope he was preaching Jesus Christ and His saving grace! Those milkshakes looked good! 🥤

  • @cabamama

    OK...my highlights in this video was that Old 1891 Church, Pamela's Diner (I love retro stuff), the CHEERWINE soda in the candy shop ( cause it's made in my state in Salisbury, N.C.), the First Presbyterian Church, the Incline Railway (amazing view), and the ending Photo Montage. Maybe the building in the distance with the red lights was the Highmark Building.

Oh because have to fly to Chicago and spend 4 hrs on layover.. I am going to watch the Amtrak video...it may be worth it. Thanks for showing me all that I crave to see. The Presbyterian church is most likely an Irish church. My Irish family came to Pittsburg from Ireland due to the husband being beheaded for being a Presbyterian. Brightest blessings!
