There are 31 two-story buildings containing 52 one-bedroom, 90 two-bedroom and 8 three-bedroom apartments. The layout of the two-and three-bedroom apartments is in the style of a townhouse, with bedrooms and bath on the second floor, and kitchen, dining and living areas on the first floor. One-bedroom apartments are located on either the first or second floor. Each apartment has one bathroom. 

All of the apartments are unfurnished and have outdoor entrances. Apartment interiors are light and airy with comfortable-sized rooms. The exteriors are brick and stone with white trim. Buildings are not equipped with elevators.

Eagle Height Apartments Now


The Eagle Heights complex is comprised of:
  • 284 unfurnished one-bedroom apartments
  • 716 unfurnished two-bedroom apartments
  • 44 unfurnished three-bedroom apartments
Most of the apartment buildings are two stories, with a few three-story facilities. Some buildings are designated "smoke free," meaning that smoking is not allowed anywhere in the building. If an apartment building is not designated "smoke free," then smoking is allowed in the apartments (but not in common areas such as hallways and the laundry room). Depending on the design of the building, apartments open onto a common hallway or directly to the outside. Buildings are not equipped with elevators, but residents may request ground floor apartments. A number of apartments are equipped to meet special housing accommodations.

    There are seven two-story buildings, with a total of 47 apartments. The entire complex is smoke free (no smoking). All two-bedroom apartments are on the second floor, and all one-bedroom apartments are on the first floor. 

    Apartments range from 418 square feet to 505 square feet. Each apartment has one bathroom, and a small kitchen that is open to the living room.
