Village Green Company

Best luxury living in 15206!

Management lies, they don't fix anything. You'll go weeks at a time without heat, electric, or water. They make up charges and put them under utilities. There are no sprinklers in the apartments, nor are there any fire extinguishers. Again, no not live here.

Overall, a solid apartment to live in. Maintenace is usually quick to fix any problems. Gym and parking within the complex. Also, 2 pools open during the summer.

Solid place to live, great location, price is okay

The Meridian at Grandview is a great place to live. This is true in no small part due to the great location. Walking to get groceries is a dream. And being so close to campus and a multitude of bus routes puts a variety of opportunities in reach. Living in Grandview is great. The apartments themselves are good, and the staff are amazing. But the real winner here is the location. Overall, I would say that I am very satisfied with our living situation.

I have lived here for two years and I have loved it. Management is good and in a great location

The albion is the perfect location for those wanting a quick commute to school but also wanting some separation from school. It is located on the "main" street in Oak Park with access to several grocery stores, pharmacies and restaurants. The apartments are spacious and there is tons of study space for students- they even have a Kribi Coffee (local coffee chain) in the lobby.

Management is warm, welcoming and responsive, and the building is safe. Other tenants are super friendly and there are many Stritch Students in the building!

The management is very responsive and it is a great and reasonable place to stay for a medical student with limited spending capacity.

Albion is an excellent apartment approximately 15 minute drive from campus. They offer studios, convertables, one bedroom, two bedroom, and three bedroom apartments. The parking is a closed garage but is an additional monthly charge. Albion is extremely pet friendly! People here have cats, dogs, and even a turtle. We have a big dog and there are free treats for her from Albion every day, there is a pet spa room for bathing/grooming. There is also an indoor playroom which is fantastic for puppy playdates on cold winter days.
Albion also offers many study locations that you can reserve 3 hour time slots. These have been nice for group studying. There is a cafe in the lobby area with cheap coffee and resident discounts!! Also being in the heart of Oak Park, there is a variety of restaurants within walking distance, as well as a small target.
Safety wise, everything is key fob. The main lobby is open 9 am-6 pm every day with employees at the main counter. From 6 pm - 11 pm there is a security person at the counter as well. To access any residential floors, you have to key fob.
Amenities include an outdoor pool with plenty of seating, multiple outdoor terraces with seating, grills, and tables, and a nice gym.

I reported this management company to the Attorney General for all the hidden fees and double-charging for utilities.

The current ownership of Meridian are in the process of doing a lot of construction around the complex which can get annoying at times. It is definitely an old complex but has a lot of space in each unit. I've lived here for 4 years and my experience has been average. Multiple issues have arose but I will say that these are always dealt with swiftly by management. It is also affordable for an initial lease (I think my initial lease was 1700 for a 2 bed 2 bath).

I've lived in this apartment for over a year now and overall, I like living in this apartment. I think it's a hidden gem, as many native Pittsburghers don't know about this building, and the location it's in is very lowkey. Every unit has floor to ceiling windows, allowing for a great view of Highland Park and a lot of sunlight to enter the apartment.

The downsides of living in this apartment is that the water pressure might be low, or there might not be any water at all. This is a result of the City of Pittsburgh's maintenance on the surrounding roads. This is my biggest complaint but the lack of water/water pressure is very infrequent, maybe once every two or three months, for only a few hours.

Little far from campus but otherwise great

Safe and clean apartment

It is good but too expensive for what it is
