New York-based Park7 Group’s $90 million multifamily project slated for the corner of Craig Street and Centre Avenue received a unanimous vote by the Pittsburgh Planning Commission, enabling the company to push forward with the new 17-story project expected to total 326 apartments.
“We’re looking forward to getting started hopefully this summer,” said Paul Levine, an executive vice president for Park7, which is picking up a project formerly pursued by another developer on an overlapping site that died during the recession.
Working with Dallas-based Humphreys & Partners Architects LP, Park7’s project calls for a building that will extend up Centre from the corner at Craig and wrap 17 floors of apartment units around six floors of parking with 438 spaces.
Ok, was by on Tuesday and there are machines behind the homes. I wasn't sure if they had actually torn down anything yet, as there were trees in the way. Wasn't able to get a good view, was on the wrong side of the bus.
So, I plan to walk down and check it out tomorrow.
