Dear East End Community Member,
While we hoped to have another community meeting this spring to update you on the ACTION-Housing project to create affordable housing at the corner of Stanton and Highland Avenues, in the former dormitories owned by the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, we were unable to do so because of the COVID 19 crises.
I'm happy to report that ACTION-Housing did acquire the three buildings this week. Renovation has started on 31 units in two of the buildings with an anticipated completion of fall of 2020. The third building with an additional 23 units will be renovated next summer.
We have hired NDC Asset Management as the property manager. There are a small number of 1-bedroom units available now at $820/month which includes all utilities and basic wifi. These are units that will be under renovation starting next June so leases will expire on May 31, 2021 and all tenants in the Highlander building may need to temporarily relocate. If you would like more information and an application, please contact:
Kristen Daniel at stantonhighland@ndcassetmanagement.com or via phone at 412.400.0084
If you have other questions, please email me at Lmetropulos@actionhousing.org or James Eash at Jeash@actionhousing.org.
Hopefully we’ll be able to have a ribbon cutting in the fall when the first phase is complete.
Thank you again for your interest in this project.
