Sightseeing
One of University of Pittsburgh's iconic classroom buildings. The international classrooms are worth checking out. The building is free to public to access and the main hall feels like inside of Hogwarts (if you are a Harry Potter fan). You can take the elevator to the 35th/36th floor and have a stunning view of the whole Oakland and beyond.
