This is the path underneath the Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh. The lights change colors randomly, so as you stand there it will be blue, red, purple, etc…. In warm weather, it also has water running down the walls and on each side of the path, which also make for a unique photo op…. Just a cool spot.

Here is a photo I took in late 2019 of downtown Pittsburgh. You can see the baseball stadium (PNC Park), Allegheny River, the three sister bridges (one being renovated), the Lawrence Convention Center and most of downtown.
Blue Path
Short and sweet post tonight. This is the lower level path at the Pittsburgh Convention Center (David L. Lawrence Convention Center). I took this photo when Theatherwiz and Robert Lussier where in town. We hit a number of cool spots and took a ton of photos.

Last November I posted a picture I took from the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh. You can see that picture here: http://brook-ward.com/blog/2013/11/11/funky-path
Tonight I am posting another picture from that location. I love this spot because of the funky path, waterfalls, lighting, etc….

Funky Path
Couple of items tonight:
1. - I am sorry I missed my routine every other day posting. I had family in from Michigan and North Carolina, so we were busy visiting with them. Fun times were had by all. I appreciate your loyal visit to my blog and didn’t mean to disappoint you.
2. - Happy Veteran’s Day. In the United States this is a holiday to salute all current and past individuals who are serving or have served in the military. My thanks go out to all of my fellow veterans.
3. - David L. Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh. I met Dave and Brad Truxell at this site back in early September to photograph this under ground path that travels below the convention center between this funky river/waterfall on each side of it. In this picture the scene is a deep blood red, but the lights changed colors about every 30 seconds or so. If you wait, it changes to purple, red, blue, while, yellow, green, etc….. Sometimes numerous colors at once. While we were there the water wasn’t turned on. When the water is running, it runs down the walls to create this waterfall effect. Maybe some day I’ll go back to see it with the waterfalls running.
Regardless, even without the water running, I thought the area looked cool. I bet when MJ looks at it, she’ll call it a “brook picture”…… meaning something weird that only I would like and want to photograph. Lol Part of what I like about this picture is the reflection of the walls, ceiling and lights in the water. In some areas the reflection is so sharp that you can’t even tell it is water.
The convention center itself is a 1,500,000 square foot convention, conference and exhibition building. It is the first LEED-certified convention center in North America and one of the first in the world. I haven’t attended an event here, but the building looks cool.
