Ideally located at the convergence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers in Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh developed during the 19th and early 20th century as the nation's preeminent industrial center. Pittsburgh became known as 'Steel City' or 'Smoke City'.
Today most of the industrial sites have been successfully redeveloped and the smoke fortunately is gone. What is left is now a rejuvenated city, one of the country's safest, healthiest and most livable cities, supported by a more diversified economy. Pittsburgh is also one of the most sports-crazy cities. Some of its best-known teams are the Pirates (baseball), the Steelers (football) and the Penguins (hockey).
Pittsburgh's attractions include its architecture - the city features several hundred bridges, museums - including Andy Warhol Museum, its many trails and parks and its unique inclined planes.
