Hot Metal Bridge is a dual truss bridge built over the Monongahela River. Built in 1900, it was originally a railroad used to transport steel across the banks from furnaces to mills. In the early 2000s, its upstream span was converted into a road and its downstream side into a pathway for pedestrians and bicycles. This construction is a testament of Pittsburgh’s remarkable infrastructure and a visit here offers scenic vistas of the city.
