PITTSBURGH (AP) – A riverfront parking lot in Pittsburgh remains closed after weekend flooding.

The city’s parking authority says it’ll start cleaning up mud and debris from the Monongahela River Parking Wharf on Monday.

The Pittsburgh Parking Authority closed the wharf on Friday as the Ohio River approached flood stage.

The river crested Saturday morning at 22.2 feet, covering the parking lot in about three feet of water.

The Monongahela Wharf is located next to Point State Park under Fort Pitt Boulevard on the Monongahela River. It has 458 spaces.
