Any Pittsburg natives out there know how easy it is to get from this hotel (Marriott City Center) to the David Lawrence Convention Center?

It takes a bit of clever walking, but it's certainly walkable in, oh, 10 minutes I should think. It'll be downhill getting to the convention center but all uphill going back. It's a bit of an odd walk because you have to bridge a sort of sunken freeway there, but it can certainly be done. I suspect the hotel folks will be familiar with the route. Explaining it here is probably getting in a bit too deep. Plus, I probably can't do it. ;-)

Not sure how the cabs will be. Pittsburgh is a notoriously terrible cab town, but downtown hotels and the convention center are usually places where you can get a cab without having to arrange it all in advance. Not that they'll want your dinky little fare, but they're stupid like that. Sigh.

Don't know if they would run a shuttle over there or anything. Possibly for a particularly big convention.
