Pittsburgh residents seem to derive a certain joy from traversing its hilly terrain, whether it's crossing the Roberto Clemente Bridge to visit the Carnegie Science Center, or heading up Mt.

It lays claim to the world's finest museum devoted to Andy Warhol and features many other resources for fans of dance, theater, music and film.
