Located in the heart of the Southside, this 70-unit building with one bedroom apartments is listed in The National Register of Historic Places. The original schoolhouse bell adorns the atrium. The building has an outdoor courtyard. Morse gardens is within walking distance of the Southside working, shopping and entertainment area. Public transportation is two blocks away and The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is three miles away.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Morse Gardens participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
