Duquesne University | Radnor Property Group
Located at the Intersection of Forbes Avenue and Magee Street, the Forbes Avenue Housing Project was designed as a 13-storied building to accommodate roughly 250 apartment style units/ 550 beds to serve Duquesne University’s undergraduate and graduate students. The ground floor, with the main entrance off a courtyard space set along Forbes Avenue, is comprised of a mix of uses all focused on fostering collaboration and communication. Upper levels are dedicated to residential units mixed in with double-height student lounges and study spaces. Common spaces such as fitness, community kitchen, game room, TV lounge (catering to the younger undergraduate students), a large flex space and mid-size study/ collaboration space (catering to graduate students) were provided as amenities. Entry courtyard/ plaza with programmable spaces and a pocket park between this building and the University Power Center was provided as public/ outdoor amenities.
