Pittsburgh/Point Breeze
From World travel guide
Point Breeze is a small community of Pittsburgh bordering Squirrel Hill, near the city limits. It's mostly residential with few significant attractions.
Point Breeze is part of the city's larger project of "reclaiming" neighborhoods lost to decay during Pittsburgh's long economic decline. While the final results are yet to be seen, Point Breeze currently is a well-kept neighborhood with many stately homes in good condition, with an educated professional populace.
