  • For Immediate Release: Lumière
    Chelsea Peluso, Public Relations Manager FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: [email protected] 412-304-1520 LUMIÈRE COMING TO DOWNTOWN PITTSBURGH (Pittsburgh, PA) – On Thursday, November 9, 2017, Millcraft Investments and McKnight Realty partners officially launched and opened pre-sales to Lumière residences, a new 86-unit condominium project in downtown Pittsburgh. “This project represents the first new home ownership opportunity since Piatt Place,” said Lucas Piatt, Owner and COO of Millcraft Investments. “We’ve seen this type of project be successful before, in a much different economic climate, in a much different downtown, Pittsburgh corridor, and in a much different housing market. We are confident this will be another success.” Presented to the Pittsburgh Planning Commission in late October, and passed by the board this week, plans for the project include nine floors of condominiums and a new parking garage. Phase One, the 350 Oliver Parking Garage, will open later this month. Located at the former Saks Fifth Avenue department store site, Lumière echoes similarities to Piatt Place. In the decade since its completion, Piatt Place is now a bustling mixed-use development and home to Piatt Place condominiums, The Capital Grille and The Goddard School, among others. The $38 million Lumière project will include a rooftop deck, state of the art amenities, open floor plans, dog park, and floor to ceiling windows on every floor with the option to add on folding glass wall technology creating an open-air living space. One, two and three-bedroom options will be available and eleven different floor plans, with terraces available on the eighth floor.
