About the building
Highland Towers is proudly managed by Franklin West, Inc.… Apartments at Highland Towers are just a few of many charming and unique residences in Franklin West's expansive, yet diverse, Shadyside portfolio. With more than 500 units in Shadyside, Franklin West has something to offer everyone. Please see the Franklin West website for the current, complete list of available apartments.
Designed in 1913 by celebrated architect Frederick G. Scheibler, Jr. and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Highland Towers is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of early American Modern architecture. Its 36 one-and two-bedroom apartments retain original stained glass, hand-painted murals of dragons, peacocks, and butterflies, built-in mahogany cabinetry, steel casement windows, and sunlit solariums accented with art glass medallions. Scheibler drew inspiration from the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, and his emphasis on efficiency and abstract beauty gives every residence a warmth and artistry that modern construction rarely emulates.
The location is every bit as impressive as the architecture. Set among the quiet, tree-lined streets of Shadyside's East End, Highland Towers places downtown Pittsburgh, leading universities, and UPMC hospitals within easy reach. Walnut Street, Ellsworth Avenue, and Bakery Square offer a vibrant mix of shopping and dining nearby, while Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Giant Eagle, and Target are all short walks from home. With direct transit connections to Oakland and downtown, residents enjoy exceptional convenience while maintaining the character and tranquility of a residential neighborhood.
