  • Sandstone Quarry Apartments – (1 and 2-bedroom only) – 15212 – (former site of Sandusky Court in Allegheny Dwellings)

For information about obtaining a pre-application for Sandstone Quarry Apartments, please contact the Occupancy Department at 412-456-5030.

Position on the waiting list will be determined based upon the date and time stamp received once the completed pre-application is submitted to the Occupancy Department.
