See the fountain at the Point where the Monongahela & the Allegheny meet to form the Ohio. Kayak and bike rentals nearby, also see the Fort Pitt Museum.
Did you know? The fountain in Point State Park, which sprays water up to 150 feet (46 m) in the air at the head of the Ohio River, draws upon water from an aquifer that passes beneath the park.
The amazing fountain serves as a scenic escape from the city and the trailhead for the Great Allegheny Passage, a 340 mile trail to DC!
Beautiful place to come and relax on a nice day..... And put your feet in the cold fountain....
Fountain off today but less noise.
Bessemer fountain. Takes you down memory lane. TV style!
Take in the water fountain and a breathtaking view of the city. A great place to eat or just walk around. If you're from out of town, consider a Ducky Tour.
I love watching the fountain at night
Check out the entry fountain.
Every Halloween there is a parade for kids around the fountain before trick-or-treating starts.
The reservoir path is wonderful for a walk or run.
PPG Place is so awesome. Great place to walk or play near the fountain or skate in the winter.
Fountain to play in surrounded by odd, modern gothic architecture.
A great place for our 2-yr-old to run around!
Perfect vantage point for photographing the Pittsburgh skyline featuring the Point Park Fountain.
Really interesting sculpture and history!
This is the entry/exit spot to Emerald Park - head down the hill behind the railing and you'll see the head of the trail...follow it down the hill into the woods and end up at Skookum Field!
Wafflonia opened a shop here!
Great place to relax and read in the summer.
Bring a change of clothes (or two) for the kids. In the warm weather they have an outdoor fountain that kids just love to play in!
In the summer your kids can splash in the fountain in the garden! Bring a change of clothes for them... My kids got soaked today.
Expansive gardens. Many varieties of spaces indoors (and some outdoors) to enjoy. Highly recommend-ranks right up there with other big name gardens (e.g., ATL).
The dog-friendly water fountain at the top of the park is a great addition!
Great place to walk the Dog even though it says no dogs allowed ;) just watch out for vehicles on pigs lane.
Dogs allowed now!! (on a leash)
This place looks really cool. It has lots of interesting spaces to sit or mingle. Well stocked bar with craft cocktails and beer.
Amazing ice cream. Very different cookies and cream than I've had before. Love the ole soda fountain. Didn't care too much for the whiny high schoolers working.
Best little old school ice cream shop! Delicious sundaes, malts & milkshakes with an old drugstore vibe.
Try the large pecan ball. So good!
We love Market Square so much we made a painting of it. Fountain in the summer, skating in the winter, + great food = fun place to hang out any time of the year.
The reconstructed Market Square in downtown Pittsburgh. Beautiful in its simplicity.
You can find Primati Brothers, among other things, at Market Square. It's awesome. And there's nothing that says Pittsburgh more than a Primanti Bros. sandwich. Enjoy!
Great place to sit and watch the fountain.
Jazz on Tuesday. Do It!
anyone have current schedule of artists this summer 2018 at Katz plaza tuesdays
Good place to find peace. Its a swimming area next to the riverfront
so relaxing with a beautiful view
Dont forget to wear your swim suit
The location of the museum is right by the water. A very good photo op make sure u go to the fountain. The museum was small but it gave a nice telling of the history and had some hands on stuff. 10$
Learn the story of how the place where the three rivers meet played a pivotal role in the French & Indian war.
Unless you're also going to the Heinz center, skip this museum--the Fort Pitt building itself is open to the public for free.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
