The Apartments features 41 one and two-bedroom apartments. Morris Knowles’s tasks included the site design, municipal approvals through Forest Hills Borough, and Allegheny County Planning Approvals.

The project received funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). We prepared the construction plans, planning documentation and application paperwork on a fast-track schedule to receive the ARRA funding from Ohio EPA. We performed the bidding services and submitted information to Ohio EPA to obtain a quick award of the ARRA funds. We performed construction administration services (shop drawing review, construction meetings, processing change orders and pay requests and preparing record drawings). We also provided full-time resident representation to observe the construction of the project. Engineering fee was $260,000.
