You're going to be in SHOCK when you see the traffic there compared to Pitt.

I was in Pitt Monday for the Steeler's game and while I never saw any rush hour type traffic the traffic moved along just fine. Walked to and from the game from the hotel. Traffic in ATL will come to a standstill at any time of day just because of the shear volume of vehicles, rush hr is a nightmare.

Good luck with the interview.

Thanks PF! Just depends upon where you are in PGH, for me it takes me 45 minutes to an hour to go about 10-12 miles. I hate that.

However I have been to a number of big cities and your right compared to PGH traffic it moves along a lot better. I think the New York traffic was by far the worst for me.

I believe according to the email it is GT Fan Relationship Management Center. Looks like it is somewhere close to campus by the basketball arena...

Just get off at Midtown Station and walk down 10th street to your destination. You might be able to take the Tech Trolley, if they allow non-students on it.

We will find out! As long as I get on campus it shouldn't be too bad, hopefully the center is right by where the stop is. I hate walking in nice shoes!

Thanks for the tips too!

The Philips Arena basketball place or the actual GT McCamish Pavilion place? If it's Philips you'd have to go downtown.

EDIT: Looking at the map for it, you won't be near campus.

Yeah it isnt Phillips. From what I know the center I am looking for is not far from the GT McCamish Pavilion.

Can just take the MARTA from the airport to GT for $2.50...
