About Erie
Appropriately situated on the rugged shores of Lake Erie, this city is Pennsylvania's fourth largest. It's conveniently located between three larger metropolitan areas: Cleveland, OH; Buffalo, NY; and Pittsburgh, PA. Erie's Presque Isle State Park is the area's pride and joy and features 7 miles of sandy beaches, 11 miles of nature trails, and a 13-mile paved trail for skaters, bikers, and joggers. The state park is enjoyed during all seasons of the year, from swimming in the summer to ice fishing in the winter. Erie has four distinct seasons with winter weather being quite fierce at times as the city and surrounding areas receive plenty of lake effect snow. In recent years, Erie has begun a redevelopment of its downtown Bayfront district. The area features Dobbins Landing and the Bicentennial Tower, which is a 187-foot tower that is open to the public and provides a great view of the bay and surrounding area. The Erie Maritime Museum showcases Erie's history and involvement in the War of 1812, and Erie is also proud to host Pennsylvania's Official Flagship, the US Brig Niagara. This sailing vessel is a reconstruction of the ship commanded by Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry during the Battle of Lake Erie. The ship docks in Erie's port during summer months and is open for tours. In addition to beautiful lakefront and historical attractions, Erie also offers a variety of entertainment options. Along Peach Street, one of Erie's main thoroughfares, visitors will find a mix of dining options as well as shopping at the Millcreek Mall and amusement at the 17-screen Tinsel Town theater complex.
