20 Stories with 4-5 stories cascading down hill. Note the mock hoses clustered around the base are actually part of the project.
110 Room Hotel
55 unit condo.
Also note the location of The Monongahela Incline connecting the tower almost directly to Downtown Pittsburgh.
One Grandview will occupy a prominent corner atop Mt. Washington, overlooking the City of Pittsburgh, and defining the eastern edge of Grandview Avenue. The product of extensive community input and neighborhood support, this project will replace the former Edge Restaurant and help to stimulate economic and community development on Mt. Washington. The proposed mixed-use development includes a world-class, 110 room hotel, 55-unit condominium, spa and fitness center, meeting rooms, and fine-dining restaurant. The site will also feature a grand public terrace that will extend the Grandview promenade and offer unparalleled views of Pittsburgh and the Three Rivers. Recognizing the importance of sustainable design, the entire project will strive to obtain a LEED Silver rating.
View looking up Smithfield Street. Location of tower will be just to left of the Mon Incline (rising above the blue street sign) in the place of the derelict concrete structure
