Pittsburgh City Map Poster

About this print

Pittsburgh map poster

Pittsburgh is a city shaped by water and hills. The Allegheny and Monongahela rivers meet at the Point to form the Ohio, and the neighborhoods that grew up around them climb steep slopes, follow ridgelines, and cross the water on a remarkable number of bridges. Streets bend to fit the terrain rather than the other way around, which gives the city a street plan unlike the tidy grids of many American towns. This print brings that layout to the wall as a piece of decorative art in the Neon Night style, a look that leans into the feeling of a city after dark.

For anyone who grew up here, went to school here, or still finds their way home through the tunnels and over the rivers, a map of Pittsburgh carries a lot of quiet meaning. It can stand for a first apartment, a long run of Sunday games, a family that has been rooted in the same few blocks for generations, or simply a place that left a mark during a few good years. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who has moved away and misses the view coming out of the Fort Pitt Tunnel.

The Neon Night edition suits rooms where a bit of mood is welcome, such as a living room, a home office, a bar cart corner, or a hallway that needs a focal point. It is meant to be looked at and enjoyed rather than used for directions, a portrait of the city's shape rather than a guide to it. Available options are listed on this page.
