PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A city councilman said progress is being made after reports of terrible living conditions at the Homewood House .
KDKA-TV has learned that NB Affordable Housing took over the property recently and has been in contact with city leadership to address the issues.
Last week, city leaders and representatives gathered at the senior apartment building to talk about the next steps after reports of deplorable conditions inside the Homewood House.
On Monday, those coming in and out of the building said no inspections took place on Monday, but something is being done. Residents received a letter on Feb. 9 that said their apartments could be inspected between then and Feb. 14.
According to the paperwork, the extermination of the property will begin on Feb. 15. Residents will need to vacate for five hours.
KDKA-TV learned that NB Affordable Housing owns more than 800 units throughout the city, almost half of which Councilman Khari Mosley said are in his district.
