I didn’t go to Pittsburgh expecting to love it…I went for an art gallery opening and, much to my surprise, thought it was awesome! The architecture is interesting, the layout of the city between the rivers and the mountain is beautiful, and there’s a lively, albeit small, artsy/alternative culture and great thrift/vintage stores. I’ve mostly spent time on South Side and love the little bars there. I’ve made friends there and enjoy going back. I used to say that if I ever had to leave New York, I would move to Pittsburgh.
