  • Kay, myself, and a few of our friends visited The Point to watch the Regatta races (snooze) and to catch the city's annual July 4th fireworks display. I hadn't done any of those things in roughly 20 years. Built in 1974, it's hard to believe that the park is nearly as young as I am. And as another reviewer mentioned, it really does feel like an oasis. For a time in my early 20's, I purposely cut through the park en route to my job at the long-gone Kaufmann's Warehouse on the then underdeveloped North Shore for this reason alone. Its greenery is comforting. It's spacious enough without being overwhelming. One can stroll along the river with a loved one, holding hands as the cool wind soothes and dries hot, sweaty skin. When the Regatta is in full effect, Point State Park becomes a vibrant backyard party, and there's no better spot to witness Independence Day pyrotechnics, the rainbow blasts illuminating the air, trees, and water. Other than its historical gravitas (The Fort Pitt Museum stands here as well as The Blockhouse, Western Pennsylvania's oldest building), and that spectacular fountain, there's not all that much to Point State Park, and I feel that's what makes it special when an event isn't underway of course. Come to think of it, some pretty gnarly concerts could be held at the park (NY's Central Park has 'em), but that might ruin it. No, PSP is at its best when no large gatherings are occurring, when there is no breeze, the sun is sparkling, and the grass is tickling your ankles. That being written, I should spend more time at PSP than I do, especially with a certain female in my life. And by all means, come on down for Independence Day to watch the folks from Zambelli... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uiqgwUs1l4 P.S. Due to the amount of history PSP holds, it is reportedly haunted!
