Dance Locations and Directions - Edgewood Club

One Pennwood Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA

(412) 421-5708

From Pittsburgh via Penn Avenue: Go east on Penn Av across Braddock Av into Wilkinsburg. About five blocks past Braddock is a McDonald's. Just past the McDonald's (but before going under the bridge), turn right onto Pennwood. Continue about 3/4 mile along Pennwood through two stoplights. The Edgewood Club is one block past the second light.

From Pittsburgh via Forbes Avenue: take Forbes Avenue (which traverses Oakland and Squirrel Hill to Regent Square and Edgewood), to Braddock Avenue in Regent Square. Turn Right. Continue on Braddock to Hutchison (about 5 blocks, and next light). Turn left at the light. At end of Hutchinson, on Pennwood, at the railroad tracks, turn right. Continue three blocks to the Edgewood Club (aka "Mellor Library") at One Pennwood Avenue, and park on the street.

From Downtown Pittsburgh via Parkway East (I-376): Go east through the Squirrel Hill Tunnels to Exit 9. Take the Edgewood branch (left) of the exit around a curve. Stay in the right lane as you pass under the bridge; then veer right onto Greendale Av. [Skip the next paragraph.]

From Monroeville or Forest Hills via Parkway East (I-376): Take Exit 9 (just before the Squirrel Hill Tunnels) to the stoplight on Braddock Av. Turn right at the stoplight, go about one block on Braddock (stopping just short of an overpass), and turn right again onto Greendale Av.

About three blocks along Greendale Avenue (through residential Edgewood), you'll come to a three-way fork: take the rightmost fork onto Race St. After another block or so, Race crosses Pennwood at a stoplight. At the light, turn right one block to the Edgewood Club.
