Driving Directions

RAND's Pittsburgh Office is located in Oakland, the city's university district, near both Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh.   The building is at the intersection of 5th Avenue and Craig Street and fronts on the southwest corner of the intersection.

Getting There:

• Driving from the Pittsburgh International Airport--Follow signs towards Route 279 North and Pittsburgh. Pass through the Fort Pitt Tunnel and onto the Fort Pitt Bridge. Once on the bridge, stay in the far right lane and follow signs for Route 376 East/Monroeville. Take 376 East to Exit 2A, Forbes Avenue/Oakland. Stay in the center lanes, following Forbes through the Oakland business district. Turn left on South Craig Street. The office is on the left at the first light.
• Driving from the east--Take the Pennsylvania Turnpike West to Exit 57, Pittsburgh/Monroeville. Follow 376 West to Exit 7, Edgewood/Swissvale. Turn right onto Braddock Avenue (at the end of the ramp). Continue to the Forbes Avenue intersection (Frick Park will be on the left). Turn left onto Forbes Avenue. Continue on Forbes Avenue 3-4 miles to South Craig Street. Turn right on South Craig Street. The office is on the left at the first light.
• Driving from the west/north-- Take the Pennsylvania Turnpike East to Exit 28, Perry Highway. Travel south for about a mile on Route 19 (a four-lane surface street). From righthand lane, get on Route 79 South. Route 279 South forks off to the left. Follow 279 South toward Pittsburgh. As you near the city, stay in one of the two righthand lanes and follow signs for 579 South and the Veterans Bridge. After crossing the bridge, watch carefully on your right for the 376 East/Oakland exit ramp. Bear right onto this ramp, which will place you on the Boulevard of the Allies. Continue on the Boulevard of the Allies for approximately 1/2 mile. Do not bear right at the 376 East/Monroeville ramp. Instead, stay on the Boulevard and exit at the Forbes Avenue off ramp. (The exit will be marked with a small green sign.) Stay in the center lanes, following Forbes Avenue through the Oakland business district. Turn left on South Craig Street. The office is on the left at the first light.
• Driving from the south--Take Interstate 79 North to 279 North (Pittsburgh). Follow 279 North toward Pittsburgh through the Fort Pitt Tunnel and onto the Fort Pitt Bridge. Once on the bridge, stay in the far right lane and follow signs for Route 376 East/Monroeville. Take 376 East to Exit 2A, Forbes Avenue/Oakland. Stay in the center lanes, following Forbes Avenue through the Oakland business district. Turn left on South Craig Street. The office is on the left at the first light.
