Neighborhood

The Strip District is a narrow strip of land just outside of downtown Pittsburgh on the banks of the Allegheny River. As one of the trendiest and most popular shopping neighborhoods in the city, residents and visitors alike find its authenticity to be what Pittsburgh is all about. An oasis for food lovers, the Strip District offers low prices and an astounding variety of produce stands, international grocers, meat and fish markets, and independent vendors. All of this is alongside boutique shops, retailers, and some of the best restaurants in Pittsburgh with a broad range of international cuisines.

Primanti Bros. is a staple to the Strip District and has been since 1933. It’s turned into a popular chain known for its unique sandwiches and laid back atmosphere, so visit their original location where it all started at the Strip District. Try some Argentinian delicacies at Gaucho with wood-fire grilled meats galore.

Great location and look, poor amenities and construction

Brass Building Lofts is in a great location, the units get lots of natural light, and the hardwood floors are stunning. That's about all that's nice. There is no in-unit laundry, instead you share coin operated washers and dryers with 13 other apartments. The units are old and have shrunken many of my clothes. They advertise a gym, but I'd barely call it that. There is one treadmill and a hodge-podge of dumbells that look like old tenants just left them. The walls are so thin you can hear all of your neighbors conversations, work meetings, TV shows, and EVERY step they take above. Some neighbors even complain that smells permeate from one floor to another.
