About The School House
School House Apartments is located in the national historic district of Deutschtown, Pittsburgh! The landmark building was once the Latimer Middle School designed by German-born Pittsburgh architect, Frederick C. Sauer. Built in 1898, the historic landmark is a yellow, four-story building with a variety of different style windows. On the fourth floor, in south-facing apartments, you'll get the most stunning views of downtown Pittsburgh. Right behind the School House sits the Allegheny General Hospital, and to the west is a handful of parks and the National Aviary. We sit 1.2 miles from PNC Park and the Andy Warhol Museum, and 1.6 miles from Acrisure Stadium. There are many amazing local restaurants and small owned businesses that are within walkable distance from the School House too. With 77 total units and 55 different floor plans, we are sure to have something that you will love. We have studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts available. Some layouts have additional loft areas with spiral staircases! In the building, we have a community gym that is open 24 hours, community laundry machines (coin-operated), and a lounge area with sofas, a TV, and a pool table. We do accept small dogs and cats, with some restrictions.
The School House is an apartment community located in Allegheny County and the 15212 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Pittsburgh Public Schools attendance zone.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
