Simply gorgeous - a must see. Check out the nationalities rooms on floors 2&3. If you are visiting in December don't miss the crows migration - the sheer number of birds around is scarily amazing.
The entrance hall is extremely cool, but I was really missing a sign with a directory of where to go, what's open to the public, where to find the nationality rooms and how far up you can go.
Check out the show at homecoming , where they have a laser show and shoot fireworks off the building. It's awesome!
During the fall/ winter exam period, they light up the awesome big fireplaces on the main floor. Try to find a space near one to study!
Did you know: The Cathedral is the 2nd tallest university building in the world. It is also the second tallest gothic-styled building in the world. Fantastic views of Oakland .
Thank G-d you know the limits of the universe are only constricted by your perspective of His energy..leave your box.. Free yourself from limitations and love everything and everyone :) free energy
Go while school is not in session. The nationality rooms are fantastic, but these are classrooms during the school year, so closed to the public.
Head to the Nationality Rooms on the first and third floors. There are almost 30 of them and they keep adding more. I like the Armenian Room. What's your favorite?
The centerpiece of the University of Pittsburgh, this landmark houses 27 different Nationality Rooms that celebrate the culture of the nationality it is named after.- Ethan, Marketing Director
Architecture , inspirational study spaces , and the historical view from the top floors.
There are a pair of breeding falcons nesting outside the 40th floor of the Cathedral ! You can watch them live online here http://www.aviary.org/cons/falconcam_cl.php Read more
If you want an awesome place to study that has a good, quiet atmosphere on a weeknight, head up to the honors college and relax.
Great place to explore. The nationality rooms and an elevator to one of the top floors
The pride of Pitt. Be sure to take a tour of the Nationality Rooms , especially around Christmas when they’re all decorated.
This is my dream schoolhouse. One of the coolest interiors of a building ive ever been in. allot 2 hours to see it comprehensively
Head up to the top for a great view
Lower floors: Hogwarts and international awesomeness. Upper floors: standard college classroom / office building .
Catch the fireworks and laser show homecoming weekend. Seeing fireworks shot off of the Cathedral is something you shouldn't miss!
Go to the 36th floor (before they close at 6pm) and check out the awesome views of Oakland , Downtown, and Schenley Park .
Also known as the "Cathy" or "Tower of Ignorance" by friends of mine who went to Pitt.
Gorgeous building - nothing else like it anywhere.
Incredible building inside and out.
Pretty neat. Head to 36th floor for a view of the city .
On Tuesday nights during the academic year they bring therapy dogs to the main hall!
The white chocolate mochas in the coffee shop on G floor are really good. The regular coffee is awful, but will straighten your hair and keep you very alert!
The highest you can go up is the 37th floor, but there are 40 floors total.
Awesome view in the unisex bathroom on the 34th floor
Dont go until you see the rooms!
