The American Lung Association invites you to participate in this athletic challenge while raising much needed funds for those battling lung disease. This is not an event for the faint of heart – or in our case, lungs! Climb Pittsburgh II will challenge elite athletes in a race to the top of the Gulf Tower in Downtown Pittsburgh. Continue reading

Making a Mark on Point Breeze

This morning I had to find a place with internet to do some work before a meeting. So I walked down the street to the coffee shop Make Your Mark on Reynolds street in Point Breeze. I guess this neighborhood needed a coffee shop – this place is packed and for good reason. Make Your Mark has all of the elements of a great coffee shop…

  • Free Wifi
  • Coffee & lunch menu
  • Vegetarian menu
  • Non-smoking
  • Indoor & Outdoor seating – beautiful courtyard in back
  • Plenty of trees to tie the dog leash too while you run in and get coffee, plus there is a Vet in the same block – very pet friendly
  • Amazing looking mint chocolate brownies
  • Big windows
  • Interesting photography and art work on display
  • Magazine rack with lots of interesting and clean magazines, including multiple copies of Ode.

Make Your Mark calls itself an “art space and coffee house” – so there is a big focus on art. There are sketch books and crayons/colored pencils on the table and big metal board to display your artwork.

There are also 2 great restaurants in the same block – The Pointe Brugge and Pino’s.
