I have been here more times in my life than I can count since, besides short pit stops in Columbia and Boston, grew up in the Burgh. There's lots of things you can do here: pack a picnic and eat it in the park, dip your feet (regardless of the signage) in the fountain to cool off, tour the Fort Pitt remnants and museum, ride your bike (or now one of those Highmark bike share ones) on the trails that run near here, and take advantage of all of the summer activities that go on here. A few years ago, maybe 2013ish, the rubber duck was anchored there and that brought a huge crowd out! There's, annually, the 3 Rivers Arts Festival (notorious for raining every year.....and the tradition continued according to my parents), free concerts in the green park before the fountain, and the 3 rivers regatta (which I'm not sure when it is now but from childhood memories it was around July 4). If you own (or have friends that have) a boat, you can anchor near here and have spectacular views of the city, the fountain, and PNC Park. Fun fact: If you take the Gateway Clipper sightseeing cruise, you actually learn there is a wind-censor in the fountain that regulates how far it shoots in the air! If you are visiting the Burgh, you will surely wind up here at some point. Hopefully it's during the summer to take advantage of the natural beauty that is Point State Park!
