Multifamily Featured Project
Ashby South Hills Village

The Challenge
Create a viable, Transit Oriented Development (TOD) in a submarket that had not seen new multifamily development in 25 years
Our Solution
SunCap worked in cooperation with the Port Authority of Allegheny County to develop a community that provides residents a vibrant, new option for housing integrated with direct light rail service from their back door to downtown Pittsburgh. An underutilized existing municipal parking structure was incorporated into the plan to complement modern floor plans and an amenity package that appeals to today’s renter and keep the community consistently above 95% leased.
