These exhibits highlight Pittsburgh's long, varied and beautiful history.. The Building
Located in the Strip District, the center was built in 1996 from the renovated Chautauqua Lake Ice Company building. It houses a good-sized collection of vintage vehicles in the old garage hall, including a Conestoga wagon, fire engine, trolley and more.

Rosie, Vicky, Optimus Prime, Spokesbot
At the entrance you may be greeted by the museum's "Spokesbot," a walking-talking robot who can provide you with all sorts of historical information. Evidently, the robot is a sass-talker, so don't be shocked if he tells you to find it yourself.

??. Lots of local info in a great building. The temporary exhibits that I saw were also interesting.
