More apartments will soon be available downtown as the Century Building is converted to accomodate rental units ranging in price from $525 to $1150. The building has long been one of my favorite and is ideally situated for use as a residential building. It's a half block from the Benedum and a half block from the Seventh Street Bridge, and will be steps away from the new grocery planned for the space at Fort Duquesne Boulevard and Seventh.

The other great building I'd eally like to see rehabbed (shown) is at the corner of Liberty and Seventh. I believe the use is already residential, but it definitely has that "signature" building quality and could use a restoration. There's even a building designed with this structure in mind on Market Street in San Francisco.
