Post-Cruise Port of Call
PITTSBURGH The city was founded in 1764 and was an industrial hub for coal mining and steel production. Pittsburgh played an important part in U.S. history from the early days of the French and Indian War, the Revolutionary War, the infamous Whiskey Rebellion to the American Civil War with its secretive Underground Railroad stops. Up through the mid-1950s, Pittsburgh was the nation’s eighth-largest city, accounting for nearly half of the national steel output. In the 1970s and 80s steel production all but disappeared from its landscape. The city has since reinvented itself with their sports teams, education, and medicine.
