Fun little old-style entertainment: for 2.50 you can take a round trip up and down the steep embankment to a stunning view of the downtown, with an overhanging observation deck. Rather confusing on how to pay, since nobody is at the bottom and it seemed you could just walk out the top without paying....but being the good Mormon boy I am, I had to ask. A little scary thinking as you are sliding up the hill, wondering what it would be like if the thing broke and slid down, but then it hasn't done that in 100 years, right? At least there were no disaster pictures. If you are lucky you will meet friendly Pittsburgians that will become your free personal tour guides at the top!
