DIRECTIONS TO THE NUIN CENTER
5655 Bryant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15206
1. If you come across the Highland Park Bridge, take the first exit on the right, towards Pittsburgh. When you get off the bridge and bear right, you will be on Butler Street.
2. At the first light, turn left onto 0ne Wild Place (formerly Hill Road), which winds up the hill through the zoo. (A left turn at the second light leads to the zoo parking lot.)
3. At the wall with the animal murals, bear right where the sign says East Liberty. One Wild Place turns into Mellon Street when you exit the park.
4. Turn right onto Mellon Terrace (you have no other option because of one-way streets). In one block, turn left onto North Negley Avenue (again, there is no other way you can go). Pass Callowhill and Elgin Streets and turn left at the third street, which is Bryant Street.
5. The Nuin Center is a white building with a wrought-iron fence on the left at the end of the first block just before the stop sign at the corner of Bryant and Mellon Streets. There is a small (eight-car) parking lot in front of the building; overflow parking is on the street.
6. If you come from the Parkway, take the Edgewood Exit and stay on Braddock Avenue until you reach Frick Park. Turn left onto Penn Avenue and right at the intersection of Penn and Fifth Avenue onto Washington Boulevard. Follow Washington Boulevard all the way to Allegheny River Boulevard and turn left. After you pass the Highland Park Bridge on your right, you will be on Butler Street. Then see #2 above.
