Upper campus residence halls (University of Pittsburgh)
40°26′44″N 79°57′45″W / 40.445526°N 79.962574°W
The upper campus residence halls at the University of Pittsburgh include Sutherland Hall, Panther Hall, K. Leroy Irvis Hall, the fraternity housing complex, and the Darragh Street Apartments. Among the newest residence facilities at the university, these buildings reside on the upper campus located near many of the school's athletic facilities. The upper campus resides approximately 200 feet (61 m) above the lower campus that lies along Forbes and Fifth Avenues, providing dramatic views along the hilltop and slopes. Planning for upper campus student housing originated in the late 1960s and early 1970s, but stalled due to community and political opposition until the early 1990s with the opening of Sutherland Hall, the first major student residence constructed by Pitt in 29 years.
Sutherland Hall is a residence hall of the University of Pittsburgh and is located on the upper campus next to the major athletic facilities and the Petersen Events Center. The $24 million ($47.1 million in 2024 dollars) structure opened in 1992. It is named for famed Pitt football coach Jock Sutherland.
Sutherland Hall, providing a view of the entire University (minus much of lower campus, which is shielded by Panther Hall and K. Leroy Irvis Hall), houses 739 students, a majority of which are first-year students as well some of the sports teams, such as the football team. It comprises a ten-floor West wing and an eight-floor East wing, adjoined by a commons building. The air-conditioned rooms are mostly doubles with semi-private baths, but there are also 6 and 8 person suites. There are two identical lounges on each floor; one is typically used as a TV lounge while the other is typically used as a study room.
The East and West wings of Sutherland Hall share a commons area complete with The Perch (a small dining hall), Hill o' Beans coffee cart, The Market at Sutherland (a small convenience store), a computer center, multiple small lounges, and a student mail center. There is a laundry facility and lobby area with a TV on the ground floor of each wing. The East wing also has a small gym while the West wing has a kitchen and a recreation room complete with a ping pong table.
The Healthy Living Living Learning Community and the University Honors College program for first-year men and women are located in Sutherland Hall. A resident director, an assistant hall director, a program coordinator, and 16 resident assistants are on staff. Previously, a Math and Physical Science Living Learning Community had been located in Sutherland.
In 2008, a $3.3 million renovation of The Perch, Sutherland Hall's main food service area which serves as the primary dining venue for students on Pitt’s upper campus, created an area similar to the Market Central dining area in Litchfield Towers and introducing made-to-order services inducing Red Hot Chef, Hilltop Grille, Mato's deli, and an ice cream and breakfast bar.
K. Leroy Irvis Hall, formerly known as Pennsylvania Hall when opened in 2004, is one of the newest residence halls at the University of Pittsburgh. Designed by Perkins Eastman Architects, its construction cost $22.1 million. It is located on the upper campus adjacent to the Petersen Events Center, having nine floors and housing 420 men and women, primarily upperclass students, in air-conditioned four-person suites and doubles with private baths. An open lounge and laundry facilities are on every floor, and the commons area contains The Pennsylvania Perk coffee cart, a fitness center, a meeting room, and a student mail center.
