Secret Pittsburgh: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure

Pittsburgh, PA, is affectionately known as The Steel City and The Burgh to locals, but there s so much more to the renaissance city than just nicknames - and that includes all of the weird, wonderful, and obscure locations that make it an ideal place to visit and call home. Where can you find a road paved solely with wood or public steps that have actual street names? Is there a place in The Golden Triangle where 1+1=1? And what about putting French Fries on a sandwich or pancakes fit for a U.S. President? Filled with tales of culture, history, and of course, the bizarre, readers will delve into what makes Pittsburgh unique including an official name for the color of its prominent bridges, an acorn from space, the story behind the Pittsburgh parking chair, and even a museum dedicated to the macabre. Secret Pittsburgh is all about the stuff you simply can t make up but would make for amazing fiction if it wasn t. Whether you re a first-time visitor or a true Yinzer , you ll find truth behind the stories and tales that keep folks coming back - and staying put.
