I'll be in Pittsburgh for a few days soon. Any suggestions for night shoot locations?

Hi. You have to visit Mt. Washington!! Another good idea might be to just walk around downtown and station square. A nice place to visit downtown would be P.P.G place. We have many bridges that would also make a good backdrop.
Pittsburgh has more bridges than any city in the world, you can't go wrong. On many occasions I'll just/walk drive through all the side neighborhoods there is so much architecture and history I have never been dissapointed. Here are a couple suggestions though:
Duquesne incline - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duquesne_Incline
It's essentially a large, slow elevator that will take you to the top of mt washington with (what many consider) to be the best view of pittsburgh where the 3 rivers meet.
There are a number of historic churches as well. Check out Calvary methodist in the Northside neighborhood at 971 Beech Ave (corner of Beech and Allegheny Ave). It has the largest tiffany stained glass windows ever made.
Old Allegheny County Courthouse - http://pittsburgh.about.com/od/pictures/ig/architecture/courthouse.htm
