Directions to our Apartments Near CMU

East Liberty is a culturally diverse neighborhood where a remarkable transformation is unfolding. In it's golden era in the 1940s and '50s, East Liberty exemplified a vibrant commercial center with a tight-knit residential community. Pittsburgh's "second downtown" declined rapidly in the '60s due to poor city planning which ultimately brought urban blight and crime upon the community. Through the highs and lows, the neighborhood has experienced an expansive renaissance. Through a monumental development effort, new restaurants are popping up, hotels are experiencing regular visitors, and East Liberty is regaining its place once again as a thriving place for businesses, residential living and shopping. Entrepreneurs and startups continue to flock to East Liberty and Google has their offices in Bakery Square just around the corner. Through the revitalization, many historic buildings have been rehabbed, starting with the Highland Building.
