by Sam Laffey 26 Aug '22

26 Aug '22

*Celebrating 20 Years Of Community, Art, Preservation, and Improvements* Union Project (UP) will host an Open House <https://unionproject.org/event/open-house/> on Wednesday, September 21, 2022, from 4 - 6pm. Speakers will present about Union Project’s history and community impact from 4:30 - 5pm. Volunteers will lead small group tours throughout the building from 5 - 6pm. Masks are required. Visitors are welcome to arrive anytime. Union Project (UP) will share a series of new exterior master plans and a lighting plan all made possible with a 2020 Planning Grant from the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC). These plans include a new courtyard space for public and private use. A 2022 Construction Grant from PHMC will also allow UP to begin repairs to the building’s roof and masonry along the two front towers. These improvements join a long list of restoration projects completed since 2002, when Union Project became the steward of the building and, eventually, the owner in 2006. Union Project’s partnership with Preservation Pittsburgh to compile a site history will also be shared. "We are excited to finally be able to share all the work we've been doing during the pandemic to sustain this beautiful building, honor our past, and continue to make critical improvements to ensure our facility will continue to serve community members for generations to come!" said Jeffrey Dorsey, Union Project Executive Director. This Open House <https://unionproject.org/event/open-house/> will: - Share architectural details and historical timeline of the land and building prepared by Preservation Pittsburgh - Showcase recent improvements to the facility and share how the space is currently serving the community - Present future investment plans in both building preservation and improvement - Include opportunities to speak with UP board and staff, representatives from Preservation Pittsburgh, and various contractors who have worked with UP on past, present, and future projects Union Project’s Open House is supported by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. Union Project is supported in part by the Allegheny Regional Asset District. -- Sam Laffey (she/her) Marketing Coordinator *Union Project uses the art of ceramics to build meaningful community connections.* *Check out our upcoming ceramics classes <https://unionproject.org/calendar/?ceramicscamp=true&onetime=true&ongoing=t…>.*

Terrific 3-BR house for.rent, Highland Park, 1,510 Sq.Ft.
by Susan Zelicoff 24 Aug '22

24 Aug '22

Hi, neighbors. I just listed my Highland Park 3-bedroom home for rent. Located on Stanton Ave. between Collins and Sheridan Sts. near Dilworth school, it’s not too big, not too small, and has all the amenities you’d wish for. Many of you visited it during my estate sale last month, when several shoppers commented, ”You have a really nice house!“ (Thank you again.) Now you or a friend can enjoy it even more! Besides being in near perfect condition with many modern touches, including a wonderfully open living room/dining room space that opens with French doors onto a big new deck overlooking lush, beautiful gardens and a fenced in, large backyard, below that very deck is a driveway leading to a large integral one-car garage. You can park a 2nd car below the deck for shade and snow coverage. Did I mention the property is mostly level, and that there’s a covered side porch for the grill right off the kitchen door? Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath—five closets up there in total—and a full stairwell leads to the attic (full height, and pretty big). There’s also a powder room on the first floor by the coat closet in the entry vestibule, which is only about 4 steps from the sidewalk. Below is a link to the listing, which has many pictures and lots more info. Contact my leasing agent, Michael Grimes, directly if you’re interested in seeing the home or have any questions. He’s very friendly and if you reply to me, I’ll probably just forward it to him because I’m legitimately swamped right now with other matters. No one is more sorry about that than me… I had quite the bicycle accident a few weeks ago. Link online to see the house/the listing here for details: https://www.coldwellbankerhomes.com/pa/pittsburgh/6108-stanton-ave/pid_4871… Address: 6108 Stanton Ave. Pittsburgh, PA 15206 Rent: $ 2,495/Month + Utilities etc. Interior: 1,510 sq. ft. Lot size: 5,000 sq. ft. Multilist # 1570856 Contact Michael to request a tour: Michael Grimes, Coldwell Banker (412) 609-4069 Grimes412(a)gmail.com
