Union on 5th 1030 Fifth Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219

"Libby the manager is very helpful and nice, as is maintenance. But there is a lot wrong with the building. to get out of the back door of the building you have to literally hop over mounds of trash flowing out of the dumpster, rotting food all over. For some reason we are required to pay a “trash valet fee” each month but the trash usually just gets taken out ourselves but then never picked up, causing it to just pile up at the door. We have been asking since the first month of school if someone could fix our dishwasher because we have to manually fix it ourselves when it stops working which takes forever and sometimes doesn’t get it to start again. My roommates blinds have been broken for 3 months and they have yet to fix them after 4 different times getting in contact with them. I do not have a window In my room, nor is there one in the common area/kitchen. Which we were not told prior to moving in that most of the units don’t have windows. My roommates windows are not properly sealed, causing it to be what feels like 40-50 degrees on really cold days. Then with the heat on, it only goes into my room causing it to be very hot. electricity and wifi are not included in the rent. So on top of paying a ridiculous amount in rent you have to pay that too. And with how poorly the ventilation is we pay around $200 a month in electricity for my roommates rooms to still be freezing and mine to be very warm. We have contacted them many times about the electricity bill being so high and the thermostat staying “auxiliary heat” they have came and look but no resolution."

"Union on fifth is a great place to live as a college student because it is conveniently steps away from campus. The staff at Union on Fifth is extremely nice and helpful and the quality of the apartments is top notch."

"We researched and reviewed many apartments and rental locations before choosing Union on 5th and they have not disappointed. From our first visit through the contract process and now living at Union everything has been top notch. The building is safe and clean and most of all the customer service from Libby Stanek and the team is great. Anytime we need anything Libby is quick to reply. Wish we had found Union sooner!! Great place to call home!"

"Perfect off campus housing for my time at Duquesne! I have lived here for 4 years and it has been the most accommodating living place for me. It is a 5 minute walk from my classes and they have parking discounts diagonally across from Union! I loved this place so much, my sister is now my roommate since she goes to Duq too! The staff is wonderful and Nate the maintenance guy has been the most helpful when things need to be fixed quickly!"

"I love union on fifth! Everyone who works here is so helpful and attentive! The place is clean and well kept, I would recommend to any student in Pittsburgh looking for housing."
