and CE Benefit Evenings are held at the Nuin Center. Private appointments are
held in the red brick house on the grounds of the Nuin Center next to the

house's back door. The waiting room is on the second floor to the left.
From the Pittsburgh International
Airport/South Hills
The
highway from the airport to Pittsburgh is called the Penn-Lincoln Parkway. It is usually referred to as The
Parkway. At various points along the
Parkway, it is marked as Route 60, 22-30, and 279.
As
you travel toward the city, you will go through the Fort Pitt Tunnel. You will exit the tunnel onto the Fort Pitt
Bridge. Get into the far left lane and
exit onto the Fort Duquesne Bridge.
On
the Fort Duquesne Bridge, get into the far right lane and take the “Route 579
to 279” exit to the right; then take the next exit marked as “Chestnut
Street/Route 28.” Follow the signs to
Route 28.
Take
Route 28 to the Highland Park Bridge exit.
Stay in the right lane on the bridge.
When you get off the bridge and bear right, you will see Butler Street.
Make
a left turn at the first light onto One Wild Place (which takes you through the
zoo). Bear right where the sign says
East Liberty (you will see a wall decorated with zoo scenes). One Wild Place turns into Mellon Street as
you exit the park area. Mellon Street vears sharpley right and becomes Mellon
Terrace for about one block. Then you have no other option but to turn left
onto North Negley Avenue.
Pass
Callowhill and Elgin Streets. Turn left
off of Negley at the next street, which is Bryant Street. The Nuin Center is number 5655 on your left
just before the first stop sign (which is Mellon Street). The Nuin Center is a large white building
surrounded by a wrought iron fence.
From Route 76, Pennsylvania Turnpike:
Follow
the turnpike to the Route 28 exit. Take
Route 28 South, then follow the above directions.
If
coming from the West on the turnpike, exit the turnpike at Route 19 South. Go a short distance to Route 79 South, and
then follow directions for 79 South.
From Route 79 South
If
approaching Pittsburgh from the South, exit Route 79 at Pittsburgh onto the
Penn-Lincoln Parkway West, which is also labeled Route 22/30 and Route
279. From here follow the above
directions from the airport.
From Route 79 North
If
approaching Pittsburgh from the North, just past the Wexford/Route 910 exit,
the road will divide. Stay to the left
onto the Route 279 exit. Follow Route
279 to the Route 28 exit. After exiting,
you will go straight through several intersections until you come to the
intersection with Route 28/Ohio River Blvd., where you will turn left onto
Route 28. Follow directions from Route
28 under the above airport directions.
From the Parkway East
Exit
at the Edgewood/Swissvale exit. Turn
right onto South Braddock Avenue, and at the third red light, turn onto Penn
Avenue. Go straight through the circle,
staying on Penn Avenue. Turn right onto Highland Avenue. Follow Highland Avenue
past Stanton Avenue to the stop sign at Bryant Street and turn left onto Bryant
Street. (Note: One block before this intersection there will
be a Bryant Street on the right and a Bryant Court on the left; this is NOT the
turn you want.) At the end of a
several-block-long business district, you will see the Nuin Center on your
right.
From the East End of Pittsburgh
Take
Fifth Avenue or Forbes Avenue to Negley Avenue.
Turn right onto Negley towards Highland Park, and turn right onto Bryant
Street (note the above directions from the Parkway East).
