PITTSBURGH INFORMATION

Pittsburgh is the second-largest city in Pennsylvania, United States, and the county seat of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh is located on the Allegheny Plateau, where the confluence of the Allegheny River and Monongahela River form the Ohio River. The area between the rivers is known as the Golden Triangle, the extremity of which is The Point. In the 19th and 20th centuries, wealthy businessmen and nonprofit organizations donated millions to create educational and cultural institutions. As a result, Pittsburgh is rich in art and culture. Pittsburgh's dedication to sports has a long history. Pittsburgh has been called the "city of champions" for its success in sports.
