context_page_description: Schenley Quadrangle is a cluster of University of Pittsburgh residence halls that is a Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation Historic Landmark and are contributing properties to the Schenley Farms National Historic District in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States.
  The five residence halls are the former historic Schenley Apartments, designed by Henry Hornbostel, with collaboration from Rutan & Russell and Eric Fisher Wood, for developer Franklin Nicola and were built between 1922 and 1924 at a cost of more than $4.5 million. Originally, the Schenley Apartments were home of Pittsburgh's well-to-do, including for a time its architect Henry Hornbostel, and consisted of 1,113 rooms in 238 apartments throughout the five buildings. The University acquired them in December 1955 at a cost of $3 million, and renovated them into residence halls for another $1 million. By 1957-1958 101 female students had moved into 20 apartments in Building F.
  Schenley Quadrangle consists of five residence halls: Amos Hall, Brackenridge Hall, Bruce Hall, Holland Hall, and McCormick Hall.
  From May to August 2018, the parking lot was converted to green space and a large patio.
