    I parked in the parking garage next door, OMG I barely made the height clearance in my pick up truck! I performed one of the greatest backing moves ever shoe horn my pick up truck into this crazy spot. My antenna was hitting the beams at times as I was driving through the garage looking for a place to park!

    There is no parking at that hotel you are 100% right and I bet the dock for deliveries is some old antiquated thing unless it was redone a number of years ago, that was the first thing I thought of "I wonder how bad the dock here is to back into."

    I tell you what it was some tight crowded driving over there, near that hotel that is for sure! I remember @double_r saying C.A. Curtze doesn't send any of there tractor trailers into down town Pittsburgh.

    Mike, I belive the loading dock to that place is on 6th Street, close to where it intersects Grant. The "dock" is actually a cutout in the sidewalk where you have to ride an elevator downstairs.

    Well I just put an offer in on a house will see what they say if anything at all. It's going to happen, I low balled them, but had to start somewhere. Looked at a house today that I thought I wanted, but it wasn't as good as I originally thought, then looked at another one for the second time and decided that was the one and did some back and fourth and put in an offer so here it goes out of the frying pan and into the fire the negotiations have started.

    There it is. Not a bad place over all I rather like it second time seeing it, garage is two car with new driveway and built in 2003 so it's pretty good needs some cosmetics, but it's far from bad. Most of the stuff my dad and I can do so that's not a problem.
     
    Bob Dobalina, misterG, Big Don and 2 others Thank this.
