Public Transit (Bus)
If you are near downtown Pittsburgh, you can catch the Port Authority bus number 42 (the Mount Washington route) from the Wood Street station. Board the bus in the direction of Mount Washington.

From there, walk up Grandview Avenue for about 5 minutes, and you will reach Point of View at 1435 Grandview Ave.
Public Transit (T)
Take the 'T' light rail from any downtown station towards the South Hills. Disembark at the Station Square stop. From there, you can walk to the Grandview Avenue incline, which is about a 10-minute walk. Ride the incline up to Mount Washington. Once at the top, walk along Grandview Avenue for about 10 minutes to reach Point of View at 1435 Grandview Ave.
Walking
If you are staying in the Mount Washington area, simply walk along Grandview Avenue. Depending on your starting point, it may take around 10-15 minutes to reach Point of View at 1435 Grandview Ave. Follow the signs for the Grandview Scenic Byway, and enjoy the views along the way.
