Depending on your speed, 25 - 15 minute walk, parking - good luck but they do have valet - sharing a lot with Casbah, my favorite "special" dinner location. consider parking near the Indigo Hotel on Highland or a side-street on this side of Penn Avenue. Parking is at times impossible on the other side of Penn near Highland and Center. Walk up one block across Center Avenue. Good American-Mexican food, outdoor and open air dining, very popular and famous for their "Big Azz Margaritas." Nice artwork and within walking distance if you feel energetic or weather is good -- about 25 minutes walk.

Open air shopping mall, TJ Maxx, Ross's, Bed Bath and Beyond, Petsmart, Liquor Store, Giant Eagle (groceries), even an actual Barnes and Noble bookstore. So, clothing, homegoods, restaurants - lots of choices, and closest Burgatory, my personal favorite for quality custom burgers, crunchy fries and adult shakes.
