Another in the Big Table Series, this Kate Romane Production takes place at the Market Street Pier on Pittsburgh's North Shore. Celebrating unique urban venues and locally sourced ingredients, this family style dinner will be our take on a low country boil prepared on site.  Enjoy a chance to get up close and personal with Pittsburgh's legendary North Shore riverfront and a spectacular view of downtown Pittsburgh.

Market Street Pier is a part of North Shore Riverfront Park. Established in 2001, North Shore Riverfront Park stretches about one mile between the Carnegie Science Center and the Three Sisters bridges—Roberto Clemente Bridge, Andy Warhol Bridge, and Rachel Carson Bridge. The park, which also skirts Heinz Field and PNC Park, offers walking and biking trails with unobstructed vistas of the cityscape. 

The park is designed with both a riverwall and riverwalk, which create a trail along the water’s edge. Boat tie-ups are located along the park to encourage water recreation. In front of each stadium is a large cobblestone quay that handles canoes and kayaks, as well as larger vessels that usually transport sports fans. A second park level includes large open spaces of grass and native landscaping, crossed by paths running in a southwest direction, mimicking the river.

The largest of these panels, called the Great Lawn, is approximately three acres of grass. An esplanade runs at the top level of the park and features a broad walkway. Other features include Kayak Pittsburgh, the Water Steps (an interactive fountain), and the Market Street Pier. North Shore Riverfront Park also houses three memorials: the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and the Law Enforcement Officers Memorial
