City advice

Getting around

Bus number 14 to downtown Pittsburgh.

You must cross train tracks and road (route 65) to bus stop across street. Bus comes Down Beaver street and goes to downtown. Bus from downtown goes Up Beaver street and through Sewickley (spins around Ambridge and goes back down town).
Getting around

Airport is very close to house.

University Blvd. in Moon basically connects Airport to Sewickley Bridge. Turn right on Rt. 65 then turn right across train tracks to arrive at house.
