I visited Pittsburgh for the first time a few weeks ago I believe its America's best kept secret. People are friendly, the city is amazing. You go Pittsburgh, be proud!
We moved to Squirrel Hill from Eastern Canada when I was 8 years old in 1963. I have very fond memories of swimming in the pool at what was then called the Irene Kaufman Center on Forbes Avenue. I went to St. Edmunds Academy right next door!
It was such a pleasure seeing scenes of the wonderful COFFEE TREE ROASTERS coffeeshop in this video of my favorite city in the USA! It was rather unexpected and, therefore, a very pleasant surprise. Actually, I was the first customer to walk into that lovely coffeeshop and, as I discovered in this video, it was on July 3, 1993. I bought a very good cup of coffee and the very nice lady who was working there that day offered me a free scone which she had broken into little pieces and which she brought over to my table in a napkin. When I first walked into the store both she and the wonderful owner were smiling as they notified me that they had just opened and that I was their first customer. I went to that great coffeeshop many many times over the years and the coffee, as well as the owner's pleasant personality and attitude, were always a great treat. I sincerely hope that that place is still open and operating in 2021 because I would love to go back and enjoy their great coffee and the pleasant atmosphere once again just like I did in the 1990's.
@@jamesslick4790 lol no its not. it closed down because the employees all quit because the management was notoriously horrible to the baristas that worked there.
@@CryWolfFilms The Squirrell Hill location might NOW be closed. It WAS open when I made my original comment, Then again Sq. Hill ALSO lost Pamela's and Eat N Park since then too. HOWEVER, they are STILL in Shadyside, Mt Lebo, Fox Chapel and Pleasant Hills.
I grew up in the 70’s in Squirrel Hill … I went to colfax elementary school…The bakery’s were the best I have ever tasted in my life .Make sure you try the begals and I always tell my friends in Florida where I live now about them … The parks were amazing as well

This is an ah-mazing video! I'm inspired to invite my family to vacation here. I can't wait to visit!
Thanks for the "in a Nutshell" stories and keeping them free for all on TH-cam
Born and raised in Pittsburgh. Love the city.
It seems like such a nice place to visit :D
5:00 "last year we dedicated..." and shows sign dated 2011.
So must've originally came out in 2012.
Still can't believe the 240p quality though.
I'll visit you now and again. As for cities I'll pass.
240p video quality in 2019? I'm guessing this was reuploaded from a previous date.
