The National Occupational Injury Research Symposium (NOIRS) 2000 was
held on October 17-19, 2000 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the Sheraton
Hotel Station Square. As you can see in the pictures below, the Sheraton
Hotel Station Square is located along the Monongahela river. In fact, the
Sheraton Hotel Station Square is the only riverfront hotel in Pittsburgh.
Since the Sheraton Hotel is located in Station Square, there is easy
access to over 60 international shops, restaurants, the Monongahela Incline,
and the Gateway Clipper Fleet. A small sample of shops located in Station
Square are shown below. For more information about Station
Square please visit their home page.
A member of the Gateway Clipper Fleet, America's
premier riverboats, is pictured below. The Gateway Clipper Fleet sails
day and night, and offers a wide variety of cruises that will let you relax
and experience life on the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio Rivers.
The Monongahela Incline, pictured below, is the
country's oldest incline. At the base of the incline sits Station Square
and it takes you up to Mount Washington where you can enjoy views of the
Pittsburgh skyline from observation decks and can walk to any of the several
restaurants along Grandview Avenue.
Shown below are different angles inside the main entrance of the Sheraton
Hotel Station Square. As you can see once you step inside there is a large
restaurant and lounge area, and in the back corner there is beautiful indoor
waterfall display.
