Q:
I have never been in downtown Pittsburgh, and I am going to see Josh Groban at the Benedum Center on September 17th (this Thursday). I am going alone. I am a women, of course worried about safety. The show starts at 7:30 pm and may go until around 10:30 pm (?). I was thinking of staying at either the Hotel Monaco, the Fairmont, or Renaissance. Is it safe for me to walk before and after the show to any of these locations? Or would it be better to park in one of the ramps, and just stay at a hotel farther away? Although it looks like the ramps are just as far as the Hotels. I thank everyone in advance for your help. Deb
