Either you do Pittsburgh for 7 days and see all Pgh has to offer, or you start venturing out and miss some sights, always a trade off.

Sure, Phili is within reach, but your talking 6 hours to get there, see the sights, and head back to Pgh, that just ate up 3 or more days. The same could be said for Niagra Falls (~4 hr drive), New York, NY (~7 hrs).

Like blitzburgh, there's a reason we live in San Diego, but Pgh is a nice place to visit

BTW - I lived there from 1963-1981, and it was a much different place then it is now. Back in the day, there was a reason for the "STEELers", with all the Steel plants and smut, pollution, etc.... but they've clean it up and it's a real showplace now.
