...ride to Downtown wise..have you checked out public transport? Granted, I was only at Duquesne for two years(Grad program), but one of the things that I loved about Pgh was the really freakin convenient public transport system there.
Coming back to LI after that...where the nearest public transport stop was over 3mi from where I lived..was really difficult.
Damn...admit I miss wandering South Side..(and Laser Floyd at the Buhl!!) I was quite the wanderer...tho I went to Duquesne on the Bluff, my church at the time was in Squirrel Hill...(I remember my best friends Landlady being horrified I was taking the bus back to my Dorms at 11:00 on a Saturday night, because Duquesne is in the Hill Street section of Pgh! Of course, after driving thru the worst sections of Hempsted/Nassau on LI and the Bronx with friends...the infamous Hill Street section of Pgh isn't as bad as some think it..)
