Pittsburgh: On the Riverfronts – New York Times

Pittsburgh: On the Riverfronts – New York Times: “PITTSBURGH is a perfect example of a 19th-century American city that has reinvented itself for the 21st century. The famous three rivers — Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio — once lined with steel mills, now sparkle next to biking and jogging paths. Gilded-age industrialists made so much money in the city that there is still plenty around to finance several world-class museums. Rundown ethnic enclaves like the South Side and the Strip district now hum with cool shops, great restaurants and loads of places to hang out.”
