This is really a nice spot in Pittsburgh, whether you're a runner, a sun lover, a river lover, getting away for lunch, a nice after dinner walk or just being a people-watcher.
There is seating all around the fountain & you can put your feet in, but you can't get into it or the police will blow their whistles at you.
There are also bathrooms which is a huge bonus if you are exercising or hanging out for a few hours.
There are boat tie-ups here as well.
