It is estimated there are currently 100 million smart phones in the world, and by 2014 there will be 600 million smart phones. Now it’s easy to find out what’s going on Downtown when you’re on the go: the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership (PDP) now has a mobile-friendly Website that makes it easy for iPhone, Blackberry, Android and other smartphone users to find what they need in the neighborhood—and fast. For instance, in under a minute on the PDP mobile Website, someone with a smartphone can search for an Italian restaurant, find out its hours and location, if it has any current happy hour specials, and call to make a reservation.

If you are not sure how to find the restaurant you selected, no problem—simply type in the address, click search and a map will appear to guide to your destination.
