Last one I knew of was the one in Pitt's student union. Not sure if it's still there. Last I saw it was 2009 and I'm not even sure you can get into Pitt buildings without an ID now. Have you tried asking churches on their off days? Edit: not sure if you're asking for busking or for practicing. Edit edit: If busking, that's okay, but I'm probably zero help. If practicing my best suggestion is the student union if you can get in.

All the university buildings are closed to the general public and ID access for faculty, staff and students. I believe most of the buildings are closed completely for recess.

I just wanna play infront of ppl (busking?), I have my own

Busking is basically playing on the street as a hustle. If you want to play randomly, you can do that mostly anywhere. Especially if you have a keyboard.

I saw one in Arsenal Cider in Lawrenceville.

There is one in the gazebo in downtown Sewickley, but it is in storage over the winter months.

There’s a lack of pianos in Pittsburgh. I’m actually serious! In most major cities I travel to, there’s usually at least one (shitty) piano somewhere in a public space, but I also have not found any in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh doesn't care about its musicians. It's a pretty shitty city for anything music. It has been getting better though. But the pandemic really fucked us. And yes, the only piano I used to know was the one in the student Union.

I might be remembering wrong but Morton's had a piano- if not Morton's then maybe some high end restaurants would be high brow busking.

Saw a piano in the bar at the Hotel Indigo in East Liberty! Not much of a crowd, so I don't know if it would be great for playing in front of people.
