Did you know Pittsburgh has more bridges than Venice? Often called the “City of Bridges,” Pittsburgh boasts 446 bridges (versus Venice’s 435) – the most of any city in the world.
This surprising fact comes from the city’s unique geography, where the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers meet, carving deep valleys and requiring creative connections.
From iconic yellow spans like the Roberto Clemente Bridge to hidden neighborhood overpasses, Pittsburgh’s bridges are as much a part of its identity as steel and sports.
Whether you’re a commuter, a biker or a sunset photographer, there’s always another bridge to explore in the Steel City.
