Silly question perhaps but I've always been raised to believe there is no such thing as a silly question!

We're staying in the Omni and know its 5 minutes walk from the con, but is there any guide or directions online to know how to get between the 2 places?

Thanks!

It's a pretty straight shot!

Put in these two items in Google Maps, (or click the loong link below)

Start: 530 William Penn Place, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 (Omni William Penn Hotel)

Finish: David L Lawrence Convention Center, Fort Duquesne Boulevard, Pittsburgh, PA

Then click the little icon for walking directions--it's a very direct walk!

Simpler:

Walk out of the Omni, turn right, and keep walking until your nose bumps into the Westin.

If after walking 10 minutes one feels no nose-pain, or if one's feet become wet, one need only turn 'round and resume walking.
