Hi All, I'll be driving through Pittsburgh next year and was hoping for a "Welcome to Pittsburgh" sign for a quick photo.

It looks like you've all got a ton of amazing street art but I don't know if you've got the traditional sign. Does anyone know of anything?

Thanks!

There's one sixth street downtown, new in 2022.

No signs but I'd go to Point State Park or Grandview Ave for a selfie with the skyline in the background

Thank you! Sounds cool!

Even if it's out of the way, you want to enter the city on 376 east so you hit the tunnel and then the city view. I take it for granted but everyone I know from out of town says it's just a spectacular way to see the ciry

Sounds wonderful! I'll make sure I come that way. Thank you!

Sorry, we don’t have a single iconic sign like that, closest I’ve found is one by this bridge in East Pittsburgh (see the pic towards the middle)

You can get a great pic of the city by the fountain at The Point, or from the Duquesne Incline

And go towards the Gateway Clipper entrance for the great local/historical street art - see the “Gateway to Pittsburgh” mural at the beginning.

Enjoy your visit!
