The historic funicular railroads (c 1877) that run up and down Mt Washington's steep slopes afford great city views, especially at night. At the start of the Duquesne Incline is Station Square, a group of beautiful, renovated railway buildings that now comprise what is essentially a big ol' mall. Rising up from the bustling South Side valley is the neighborhood called the South Side Slopes, a fascinating community of houses that seem perilously perched on the edge of cliffs, accessible via steep, winding roads and hundreds of stairs.
