Has Ed Lover been hanging around Pittsburgh lately?

Here he is with Doctor Dre ("Doctor," not "Dr.") and Denis Leary:

He was in town hosting a rap show.

Edit: By the way, I suspect some of the other guys with him might have been somewhat famous as well, but Ed both looked exactly like himself from back in the day, and had an unmistakable voice (we were sitting close enough I could have taken one of his fries).

You do realize that the Wharf area downtown, which is a city-recognized historic district, once abutted the river? That was before the highway was built, effectively cutting downtown off from the river shore on that side. It's a shame. Can you imagine the Wharf area with the cafes and shops of Market Square, overlooking the river?

Market Square really has improved its look. Really very nice and I think one of the top spots in downtown.

Hopefully these places will be good. All the new places have been been striking out for me personally (Diamond Market, Las Velas, Noodles & Company, that take-out sushi place).

The places I have tried were pretty good--Bella Sera, NOLA, and Wingharts--but there is no overlap with ATC's list.

Is anything suppose to go into here....maybe I missed a proposal for this spot, didn't think this would be on the market so long, seeing as its now in heart of prime property.

P.S Google need to update their Street View of MSQ.....Sky View has the new layout and street view still uses the old.
