Pittsburgh
Downtown ("Golden Triangle")
The historic, economic, administrative, and cultural center of the city, where the three rivers meet.
East End-South
Home to the city's "second downtown" - the college neighborhood of Oakland - as well as many institutions, parks, and quieter residential and shopping areas. The main neighborhoods of interest in this area are Oakland, Shadyside, and Squirrel Hill.
East End-North
A center of the city's ethnic diversity, this formerly industrial area is now bustling with shops and restaurants. The main neighborhoods of interest in this area are the Strip District, Lawrenceville, Bloomfield, and East Liberty.
North Side
Two of Pittsburgh's major league sports teams and many of the city's finest museums can be found here. The main neighborhoods of interest in this area are the North Shore, Allegheny, and the Mexican War Streets. (Note: In common parlance, "Northside" most often refers to these and a few other specific neighborhoods in this area. See the district article for details.)
South Side
A particularly hilly region famous for its inclines and great views of the city - as well as its bar scene. The main neighborhoods of interest in this area are the Southside Flats and Mt Washington. (Note: In common parlance, "Southside" most often refers to two specific neighborhoods in this area: the Southside Flats and Southside Slopes. This region also includes some neighborhoods considered the "West End". See the district article for more).
Pittsburgh
Wayfinder Street Sign

This system of districts is based upon the Pittsburgh Wayfinder System, a series of 5-colored maps of the city you will see on directional signs throughout the city. Each color indicates a different region, while the blue lines represent the three rivers.

Each of these districts contains numerous distinct neighborhoods. The city has published a map www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/cp/maps/pittsburgh.html showing all neighborhoods, with printable maps of each.
