***PNC Park is one of the best looking ballparks I've ever visited; the integration of the city skyline (with a clear view of many skyscrapers and one of the city's many bridges--Roberto Clemente Bridge) makes for a great and memorable view; the concession area just past the outfield also puts you right on the water; the only negatives were the narrow seating and how the food I had was a little subpar (but the food is from local vendors so it has potential)***\n\nMany of the new baseball stadiums have done a good job of integrating the city's skyline.  In Busch Stadium (St. Louis), you get a great view of the Gateway to the West Arch while you get to see some prominent Downtown buildings from your seat at Progressive Field (Cleveland).  But of the ones I've been to, none have done it better than PNC Park.\n\nFrom your seat, you get a view of several Downtown Pittsburgh buildings and not just a flat view.  Instead, you get great depth and actually see several blocks of skyscrapers in various sizes and from many different time periods.  Even better is the view of the Roberto Clemente Bridge.  If you have ever driven in Pittsburgh, you will know that bridges are a big part of the city's identity in how they connect the many neighborhoods in and around the Pittsburgh metropolitan area.  While a great view is a big plus in itself, the one at PNC Park reflects the city's environment and identity more clearly than any ballpark I've been to or plan to visit.\n\nThe ballpark is nice to look at as well; there is a good scoreboard and a good color scheme throughout the stadium.  Walking around the ballpark is fun too.  The walking area is pleasant and there are attractive concession stands as well as a great area just past the outfield where there is a view of Downtown Pittsburgh, the river and boats--very reminiscent of what you will also experience at The Great American Ballpark (Cincinnati) or AT&T Park (San Francisco) though AT&T Park easily tops all three with its view of more water and the Bay Bridge.\n\nThe team store was not as big as other Midwestern baseball stadiums like Busch Stadium and The Great American Ballpark, but there was still a good selection of team gear and souvenirs as well as a few good items for non-Pittsburgh fans (like a reasonably priced collection of mini pennants for all 30 MLB teams).  The service was friendly.\n\nThere were areas where PNC Park could have been better though.  The seats were surprisingly narrow so it was kind of a tight fit regardless of who you were sitting next to.  The food was disappointing too.  A lot of it tasted like it had been sitting around for too long though I did have their food late in the game; maybe it is better when you just get there.\n\nStill, I felt the food showed a lot of potential.  PNC Park features a wide variety of local vendors including Primanti Brothers (a limited menu of a local sandwich shop), Quaker Steak & Lube (a chicken wing spot) and Chickie's & Pete's (a local restaurant known for seasoned fries).  It is the kind of food that can work well at a ballpark (similar to the local and decent food at The Great American Ballpark) so I think you can have a decent food experience here if you check out the right vendors at the right time.\n\nPNC Park is a great place to watch a game.  While I found the seats a little uncomfortable, it is a beautiful ballpark--easily the nicest looking of the ones I've visited.  If you are looking to check out some of the country's best baseball stadiums, I think this one should be high on your list.\n\nFor parking, you will find a few nearby paid lots and parking structures.  You can also find parking on the other side of the river (there is a walkway).
