DOWNTOWN. A steel pyramid and steeple atop Fifth Avenue Place serves as a downtown landmark and draws attention to this upscale shopping and dining destination. Specialty shops such as Betsy Ann Chocolates, Crystal River Gems, King's Jewelry and Laurie's Hallmark are convenient for picking up gifts and souvenirs. Caffe Amante, an attractive Italian restaurant, offers a pleasing selection of food and wine, and there's also a food court on site.

DOWNTOWN. This collection of six different buildings designed by Philip Johnson combines Gothic-style architecture with modern functionality. The ground floors house a number of restaurants and shops, while the upper floors are office space. The Wintergarden, located in the lobby of one of the towers, is an airy open space filled with plants and benches. Numerous events take place here throughout the year, such as the Three Rivers Arts Festival Sculptors Exhibit. During the winter months, the central plaza is home to a popular skating rink and the 65' Christmas Tree.

Station Square is a 40-acre complex just across the Monongahela River (via Smithfield Bridge from Downtown). Shopping, dining, and entertainment are dispersed throughout the buildings on the site, which include the P&LE Railroad (Grand Concourse Restaurant), and former boxcar warehouses.
