| - Coming from a city that does not do well with reuse of old sites and structures, I love seeing what can be done with former industrial land.
The Waterfront is a great place to visit for a meal, shopping and entertainment. There are a number of chain restaurants (Uno's, PF Changs, Red Robin, Eat N Park, Steak and Shake) and there are speciality restaurants as well (Japanese, a brewery and fish market). You can come for a meal and stay for a comedy show or dueling pianos. They also have a Dave and Busters which is fun for a date night, girls night out, etc.
The mix of stores for shopping is interesting. There are some unique finds such as Hometown Sports (which has the typical Pittsburgh sports team merchandise) and a wine store chock full of wine decor, accessories and apparel. You can even sample wines from Heritage Wine Cellars. The rest of the stores are a mix of national chains. Bath and Body Works, Carters, Macty's, Ultima etc.
Overall, a great destination for shopping and entertainment, but it is much better for the entertainment than the shopping.
