The Kingston is a mid-rise co-op built in 1965 that offers primarily one- and two-bedroom condominium-style units across multiple floors. The exterior presents a straightforward, functional 1960s residential block with covered entry, assigned surface and garage parking, and a rooftop level dedicated to a panoramic party room with an outdoor deck. Interiors vary by unit but commonly feature eat-in kitchens with islands or pass-throughs, built-in pantries, updated appliances, private balconies or patios, generous closet storage and a mix of original and modernized finishes; some units include walk-in closets and en-suite bath configurations. Shared building systems include two elevators, intercom access, on-floor laundry rooms, basement storage lockers and recently renewed elements such as a replaced roof and upgraded elevator equipment. The co-op’s operating model bundles most occupancy costs into the monthly fee—property taxes, heat and hot water, water/sewer, trash, limited cable and exterior maintenance are covered—reducing resident billing complexity. Resident services and conveniences emphasize community: a ground-floor reading/library room, optional social events, building-hosted little libraries on each floor, and a reservable rooftop party room with river and neighborhood views. The property sits adjacent to the Avalon Library and within walking distance of restaurants, retail on California/Lincoln avenues and public transit; routes to I‑79 and I‑279 are readily accessible, supporting commuter connections to Pittsburgh and nearby medical and commercial centers. Pet and rental policies vary by unit offering but several listings note restrictions, while the co-op board approval process includes background checks and interviews.
