We all know that Pittsburgh still evokes in some minds the images of a smoky, soot-filled town -- a reputation that hasn't applied for decades. Instead it is a small, friendly city, filled with people who love their traditions, from kielbasa to Kennywood. A city that boasts an arts scene that would make many larger cities jealous. A city with an amazing array of diverse neighborhoods where everyone can find a place that feels like home. A city with several state parks within an hour's drive. A city with the best sports fans in the nation. Here are just 10 Things to Love About Pittsburgh. What else do you love?

At the Pittsburgh Children's Museum there are special Martin Luther King, Jr. Day events and activities. In Friendship, at the Pittsburgh Glass Center, community members of all ages are invited for a free day of glass fun with bead and tile making, glass blowing and flame working demonstrations.

Did you know that the Steelers are now the only team in the NFL to sport a logo on only one side of the helmet? Or why?

If that's not enough Steelers trivia for you, then do you remember the Steagles? Or the Steelerettes? The historic Duquesne Incline cars which read 'DEEE FENSE' on home game days? Or how Myron Cope first came up with the Terrible Towel?
