Quick Tips About The Strip District

Tips About The Strip District
            



I’ll be honest: Every time I’ve heard someone talk about the Strip District, I thought they meant that there’s a line of stripper clubs and other dirty things in that area. Knowing nothing about it, I’ve always associated it with dirtiness (because of the word ‘Strip’).                             

No joke.           

                                                                                                                                   

The neighborsinthestrip.com site tells me that the Strip District is, “a narrow strip of land in a flood plain confined by natural boundaries: the Allegheny River to the north and the extension of Grant’s Hill to the south.”                                                                                                   

Oops.                                                                                                                                                   

Here is a quick and easy tip I found: “The produce district runs from 16th to 22nd streets.” So there is produce on seven streets. Got it!        

Seems easy enough to remember.                               

The website visitpittsburgh.com states that the Strip District has “low, low prices and tremendous selections,” but doesn’t every store say it has low prices? And compared to what?    

So yeah, there's some quick tips about The Strip District, along with clearing up its name issue for anyone who knows nothing about it!
