PITTSBURGH — Carlow University is homing in on campus-redefining project for its front door on Fifth Avenue in Oakland.
And it is signaling that it is fully committed to demolishing a former Catholic church it owns to do it.
At a community meeting hosted by Oakland Planning and Development Corp., university officials presented plans for its institutional campus master plan, a major component of which is its public-private partnership project with the Elmhurst Group to redevelop a collection of properties along the north side of Fifth Avenue into upwards of 400,000 square feet of new academic and commercial space.
