Mellon Square
540 Smithfield St, Pittsburgh, PA
Crema's Take
“Mellon Square is a hidden urban oasis tucked between downtown Pittsburgh's towering buildings, where you can sip your coffee while watching cascading fountains and enjoying tree-lined seating in the shade. This pioneering modernist park above a parking garage draws both locals and visitors looking for a peaceful escape from the bustling streets, with plenty of spots to linger whether you want to people-watch or simply relax by the water. It's the kind of place where your coffee tastes a little better because the setting itself feels like a small retreat in the heart of the city.”

Nice park situated in between several of the larger downtown hotels. Seating isn't the most comfortable, but there are plenty of areas to sit,.many in the shade. There's often entertainment during the lunch hours.
Nice area to chill in middle of some of the tall buildings Of downtown Pittsburgh. Clean, places to sit ( benches tables w chairs )
Very relaxing watching the fountains, and it is cooler with the fountains all going
Iconic Mellon Square is a beautiful urban park in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh. It is the first Modernist park built above a parking garage, and it is a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike. The park is home to a variety of trees, flowers, and shrubs, as well as a number of sculptures and fountains. Overall, Mellon Square is a well-maintained and enjoyable park. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the city scenery.
A quite pleasant urban park with fountains, plants and trees. It is tucked in the busy Pittsburgh Downtown area between busy Smithfield Street and the grand, historic William Penn Hotel. From here, any business, Commonwealth, Federal, Allegheny County, and City offices. This is a great place to stop and eat your breakfast, lunch or dinner. Check it out!
