  Apartment Review Overall rating: 3/5 Value for money: 2/5 1. Lighting & View The unit I lived in faced the courtyard. Natural light was extremely poor — I had to keep the lights on even during the daytime. The view was also terrible, and privacy was very limited since I could clearly see into other residents’ apartments across the courtyard. Apartments facing the courtyard should reasonably have lower rent due to these issues, but they did not. 2. Soundproofing Overall, the sound insulation was decent, but there were some serious flaws. The soundproofing between neighboring units on the same floor was actually quite good — I rarely heard my side neighbors during my year-plus stay. However, in the bathroom, I could frequently hear noise that seemed to come from either upstairs or downstairs. Inside the apartment, I was often disturbed by the sound of upstairs neighbors vacuuming or walking barefoot, which appears to be a common issue in this type of building with wooden flooring. The biggest problem came from outside: for some reason, when it rained, the sound of raindrops hitting the roof or eaves was extremely loud. Given that rain is very common in Pittsburgh, this meant that on many rainy nights I had to wear earplugs to sleep. 3. Interior Finishes The interior finishes were acceptable at best, but extremely cheap considering that this building markets itself as “luxury.” You can tell this immediately during a tour. The floors are not real hardwood, the cabinets have no soft-close or anti-collision design, and the toilet seat slams shut with no slow-close mechanism. The washer and dryer were not modern front-load machines but an old-fashioned Top-load agitator washer, which damaged several of my clothes and was extremely noisy. The air conditioning system was also terrible — it made the apartment either too cold or too hot, and it was very loud when running. 4. Ventilation Ventilation was very poor. There is no fresh air system. The only way to ventilate is by opening the windows, but they only open a very small amount. As a result, whenever you cook, the entire apartment ends up smelling like food. 5. Package Delivery The package room was a complete mess. Although packages are supposed to be organized by floor, most delivery drivers simply leave them randomly piled up. Some packages were even left outside the main entrance. This made it extremely difficult to find deliveries, and there are no secure package lockers. I lost multiple packages during my time there. 6. Security Although the main entrance has access control, you do not need a key to use the elevator. Once someone enters the building, they can go anywhere. Last winter, there was a homeless person who frequently stayed in the space between the outer and inner doors (the inner door requires key access, but the outer one does not). That area was warm, and he often smelled strongly of alcohol, which made me feel unsafe when picking up food deliveries. Final Summary The building materials and construction quality feel very cheap, yet the apartment is marketed and priced as “luxury.” I paid around $2,200 per month for a courtyard-facing studio, plus approximately $50 for water, $100 for electricity, $100 mandatory Wi-Fi, and $200 for parking, totaling nearly $2,700 per month — which is absurd for a studio of this quality. If you have a car, you can find much better and cheaper apartments south of the river. If you don’t have a car, you would be better off choosing Coda next door (even though their leasing team is slow to respond). Overall, the price does not match the living experience at all. Overall experience: 3/5 Considering value for money: 2/5 Would not recommend.

  It was a great, easy, and stress-free experience working with Derrick from the leasing office. My apartment was originally scheduled to be ready on January 7, but I needed to move in a little earlier. Derrick went above and beyond to facilitate the entire process smoothly and ensured the unit was ready in time for my move-in. If anyone is considering living at The Industry, I highly recommend reaching out to Derrick. Overall, my experience has been excellent and the unit itself is even better. Very upscale, modern, and well-maintained complex. I truly love living here and would highly recommend it as a great place to live.

  I wanted to share that Derrick has truly made the move in experience smooth and worked with me to answer all my questions. Relocations are always tough but it was so helpful to have the support because I had so many questions. I am so excited to continue my journey with Industry!

  Wonderful staff, safe and convenient location, excellent gym, great workspace / lounge! I literally moved in because of Clarence, the fantastic former property manager, as I legitimately felt I could trust him and wouldn't just be a door number at a big apartment complex. Jalissa, the former leasing agent, was also absolutely wonderful, and super kind. Rich too is excellent, a gentlemen and wonderful technician.

  Been here a few months and it’s been a great experience,clean, well-maintained, and professionally managed. The location is super walkable (groceries, shops, schools, restaurants/bars), and the amenities/common areas are kept spotless. Derrick, the property manager, was especially helpful for giving me great bar tips for last thanksgiving.
