The 412 - January 2015: Those seeking to make a Mister Rogers’ pilgrimage have some choices. You could visit the beautiful statue of Fred on the North Shore. You could seek out the WQED building in Oakland. You could check out the full-size replica of the Neighborhood Trolley in the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh.
But, starting today, those who want an authentic (and moving) trip to Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood should head for the Sen. John Heinz History Center.

Its truly heartwarming to see something that was a big part of my childhood not being forgotten. Mr. Rogers neighbor was instrumental in facilitating my creative imagination and being able to fully explore and wonder about the world around me. Looking back I have true appreciation for how the show told it’s stories every week. Knowing that there now is an established place people can go to show their appreciation and rediscover the treasures time has caused them to them to be forgotten is a true joy. With the fact that this is free allows for future generations to take notice of what this show did for so many. And with the help of the internet and youtube his legacy will not be forgotten.
