Pittsburgh, PA

Pittsburgh, PA, is a dynamic city where history and innovation intersect. Known as the 'Steel City' for its industrial roots, Pittsburgh has transformed into a hub for technology, education, and the arts. Its striking skyline, framed by three rivers and over 400 bridges, sets the stage for a vibrant downtown, diverse neighborhoods, and renowned cultural institutions like the Carnegie Museums and the Andy Warhol Museum. With a thriving food scene, welcoming locals, and a reputation for resilience and reinvention, Pittsburgh provides an inspiring setting for collaboration and discovery. 

Carnegie Mellon University and University of Pittsburgh campuses are located in the Oakland neighborhood. Oakland is Pittsburgh’s academic and cultural heart. The Carnegie Museums and Carnegie Library are also located in Oakland. 

Oakland neighbors the East End Area, a group of neighborhoods that include Shadyside, East Liberty, Lawrenceville, Highland Park, Bloomfield, Squirrel Hill, and Regent Square. These neighborhoods are well connected with the Conference's location on the Carnegie Mellon University campus through bus lines. If you're looking for lodging in the city, these neighborhoods are likely your best options, especially Oakland, Squirrel Hill, and Shadyside, which are just a short bus ride from Carnegie Mellon University. There’s also a good variety of coffee shops, restaurants, and eateries in the area. 

Three Rivers Graduate History Conference 2025 will be held in four buildings of the Carnegie Mellon University Campus: Baker Hall, Cohon Center, Posner Hall and Porter Hall.
