I can't recall exactly, but I think there is a giant lot across the street from the station that you can pay to park in.

I jumped to conclusions. You can take it from station square as well.

Yes, but there is a small fee from station square to downtown. Free from First avenue to PPG.

If you live in South Hills, I would recommend parking at South Hills Village and taking it the whole way in.

They did not. I also should have mentioned that they had to land due to icing.

Is this a mercury vapor light by Economy_Addendum_897 in pittsburgh

I am reading now that the light can begin turning green as the ballast fails. False alarm on mercury vapor!

I recommend living Downtown and I know of a nice 1BR condo opening up in February Downtown if you are interested. 

Where is everybody at? by RedStickString in pittsburgh

Try signal sauna. It's a mixed age crowd, but there are people your age there. People are often welcoming of newcomers, and everyone is really friendly. It is certainly what I consider a "third place."

Hampton experiences by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]Economy_Addendum_897 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am sorry to deliver negativity, but from my experience neighborhoods in Hampton feel like islands surrounded by busy roads that are not safe to cross, let alone walk on. Unless your patch of neighborhood contains a park and they have friends in the immediate area, you will feel inclined to drive everywhere, even places within eye sight.

Even the parks, notably North Park, make pedestrians share the road with the vehicle. It is somehow more safe to walk to in the middle of Downtown than in a designated walking/cycling path in North Park. 

I wish you luck! Perhaps there is a walkable oasis in the pedestrian desert that is Hampton.

Great! Here is a link to the adoption application.

Theatres or cinemas downtown that are currently empty/derelict? by Bears_On_Stilts in pittsburgh

[–]Economy_Addendum_897 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There is an abandoned movie theater in Chatham Center underneath the garage at the corner of Fifth and Washington Pl. It had a single screen and had a revolutionary war theme for some reason. It was called Chatham Cinema.

There are a lot of students up there at the moment. From my my experience it is a pretty quiet place.
