I've never seen The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but I've seen and adore the "and in that moment, I swear we were infinite" scene, and my biggest flex is I drive through the same tunnel all the time.
#not actually my biggest flex but you get my point#like that's the fort pitt tunnel!! i've been on that bridge hundreds of times!!#i'm not the biggest fan of my state pittsburgh is my number 1 forever and ever#i love it so much#jamie talks

The Fort Pitt Bridge
The Fort Pitt Bridge In Pittsburgh
The Fort Pitt Bridge, an engineering marvel and an icon of Pittsburgh, has a rich history that dates back to the mid-20th century. This double-decked steel bowstring arch bridge, spanning the Monongahela River, symbolizes Pittsburgh’s advancement in the realms of infrastructure and city planning.

Do you have recommendations for what to do and see in Pittsburgh? And is it easy to get around by bus/subway etc?
anon I’m so sorry, I started replying to this at the airport on my way home then saved it to drafts and forgot to go back and publish, oops! anyway…
ok, please bear in mind I am just a person who has visited a few times so this is in no way exhaustive, and will obviously be coloured by how easy things are to get to without a car and things I personally find interesting!
presented in no particular order…
heinz history centre & sports museum
go for a wander through the strip district
fort pitt museum & point state park
national aviary (fun on its own but would thoroughly recommend the penguin encounter as an extra)
andy warhol museum
carnegie science centre (though I just went to a specific exhibit so I don’t actually know about the museum as a whole but I liked what I visited)
walk the three rivers heritage trail along the north shore & visit the mister rogers statue (and I always enjoy walking over one or other of the three sisters bridges to get across from downtown and back afterwards)
take a trip on the inclines (duquesne is the prettiest and has the best views of the city at the top but personally I like to go up the mon - when it’s not closed that is - walk along grandview then come back down via duquesne)
point of view sculpture (just a bit further along grandview from the duquesne incline)
pittsburgh has a couple of theatres so it’s always worth checking out what’s on during your trip, and pittsburgh has some great restaurants/bars to check out too.
also, not really a “thing to do” but I will never get tired of arriving via the fort pitt tunnel when coming in from the airport and downtown just explodes in front of you as you emerge!
there are some other places I haven’t visited yet but are on my list, including the zoo & aquarium, phipps conservatory, carnegie museums of art and natural history, the frick, and randyland.
on the second question, downtown & the areas close by are very walkable but I find it is pretty easy to get around on public transport, yes. PRT now has an app (ready2ride) that includes a journey planner and live trackers (amongst other stuff), lets you buy a range of different types of pass that you then use by just scanning your phone when you get on, and which covers buses, light rail and the inclines. as someone who lives in london and is used to just tapping my phone to travel on public transport, this was way easier for me than having to think about paying fares every time and took a lot of anxiety out of using buses!
the T (light rail) is also free between downtown and the north shore - all the stops between first avenue and allegheny - which is handy! I also think it’s neat that most bus stops have a QR code you can scan for live arrivals info, which also helps you check you’re at the right stop :)
#Anonymous#answers#sorry for the delay but here are some thoughts#for whatever it’s worth#wpa#I have a fear of getting on a bus going the wrong way#bc of traffic driving on the opposite side of the road than I’m used to#so the bus stop thing soothes the anxiety lol

okay bbg i want to know every single concept for every wip.
I. Love. You.
Your wish is my command🥰🥰
Ok so I’m gonna start off with ones I already talked about
twilight zone au
my lady, never wrong.
I rot for u
now onto the ones I haven’t talked about,
blvd of allies- can’t remember if I told you about this one or not but in Pittsburgh I saw a sign that said blvd of allies and I really liked that. It’s somewhere downtown by the fort Pitt tunnel maybe idk. But it’s during the first war and somehow Sirius got kidnapped and is being held hostage. Bellatrix uses pollyjuice and disguises herself as Sirius and hides out in remus’s and Siri’s apartment. Remus clocks that it’s bellatrix immediately cause idk wolfy senses or some shit. Remus goes batshit cause no one touches Siri but him and then he fucks Sirius against a wall cause it’s close to the full moon and he’s a possessive idiot😻😻
thy kingdom come- Sirius is an old timey priest? Alter boy, idk yet and Remus is a demon. A whole fuck ton of temptation happens cause Remus likes to fuck with Sirius, that’s it
ryders fic- obviously it’s for @ryder-the-writer WHO IS AN ASS, love him tho. anywho it’s rosekiller but the lost boys. Barty is a vampire who has made it his MISSION to fuck with Evan. What barty doesn’t know is Evan is 100% more batshit than he is and turns barty into a lovesick fool. Proof:
they are unedited and so bad PLEASE DONT JUDGE😭😭
dying stars- ok this is my stardust au, I haven’t touched it in so long, BUT sirius is a fallen star and Remus promised to give someone Sirius cause he had no idea that his fallen star would be Sirius. And they go on a merry adventure and fall in love
for you my love- ahhh my wolfstar princess bride au, my child. I haven’t written anything for this fic in so long. But I will finish it and post it this year!! Hopefully, I have told you about this one. I’m pretty sure this is the one you said you never watched the movie for? Idk can’t remember, but if it is we are watching it!! All I have to offer is this nasty little snippet:
they are so gross, love ‘em tho
wip tag game
#ok I think that is all of them??#these are so rushed and so badly explained so I apologize😭#loveliest soph<33#sunny’s playin games

New York to West Virginia with a heavy dose of an amazing city in between. #Project365
Emerging from the Fort Pitt Tunnel
Greetings from Fairmont.
West Virginia.
Yes, mountain mama.
It’s a delightful burg we’ve landed in for the night. We have dinner and a room and we’re settling in.
An early start will send us toward North Carolina in the morning.
But this isn’t the burg I’ve come to talk about tonight.
Oh, no. A day that began in Buffalo, NY, with a glance into Ontario, drove by…

Cathedral of Learning in Pittsburgh.
First time visitors to Pittsburgh are often amazed by the first glimpse of the city skyline that opens up abruptly and dramatically as they exit the Fort Pitt Tunnel. The wow factor is a good start for those who may want to see some of the city’s best known attractions.
Popular must dos include the Duquesne…

one week until my sister comes home from california. i will be picking her up from the airport late at night, and i am excited to have another fort pitt tunnel perks of being a wallflower moment. one of the many joys of calling pittsburgh home!
and then we're headed straight up north to go camping. she says she'll be fine but i have a feeling she will be falling asleep on the boat or around the fire dad style

not to be incredibly petty but it is very clear to me when ppl write stuff set in pittsburgh who have never driven in the city or looked at google maps for the area
#the only reason you'd enter downtown through the fort pitt tunnel is if you're coming from the airport#i suppose driving in from the southwest might also hit the tunnel#but that's very specific and the generic fanfic 'driving in from X direction' does not cut it#i get why that shot is popular its a good view#but it works bc the airport is on the other side of the tunnel#i myself am incredibly fond of the view of downtown from i376 west after the squirrel hill tunnel on the way downtown#my greyhound into the city used to take that route and it was an equivalent 'hello downtown' view#though i admit the fort pitt tunnel view is much prettier cause there's nothing and then downtown is right there
