SPONSORED: Eagle Park Apartments Celebrates 20 Years of Providing Off-Campus Housing

CLARION, Pa. – Eagle Park Apartments is celebrating 20 years of providing off-campus housing for Clarion University students and professionals.

Eagle Park Apartments opened in fall 1999 and is still going strong with 221 units to choose from. Most units are single studios with a variety of sizes along with two bedroom units that accommodate two to four people. Prices range from $390.00 per month to $625.00 per month which includes utilities except for cable and internet. All units are furnished.

Eagle Park Apartments is committed to the safety of their tenants in a clean, affordable atmosphere. Owned and operated by Clarion Alum, Jay Kumar. Jay knows first-hand about accommodating students and professionals with easy move in and move out options which includes flexible leasing options. No worries about turning on utilities or moving in furniture; Eagle Park has it all covered.

The Eagle Park shuttle bus for tenants only has been making its way around campus for the past 19 years. Every 15 minutes before classes, the bus takes off. In addition to the Eagle Park bus, the community bus stops in front of Eagle Park on a regular schedule. These transportation options are for an apartment complex that is just three-tenths of a mile from campus.

Eagle Park also has indoor bike racks and plenty of parking for your convenience.

The history of Eagle Park Apartments is quite progressive, which has contributed to its success. Initial renovations included Tower I only, as they took a vacant building and began an extensive renovation process.

Below is an overview of the different phases which contributed to the transformation of Eagle Park Apartments:

Phase I was a complete renovation of Tower I, as Eagle Park kept it dormitory style.
Phase II which was five years later (Fall 2004), Eagle Park opened Tower II. During this phase, all dormitory rooms were transformed into 87 studio apartments.
Phase III began two years later (Fall 2006), Eagle Park converted a cafeteria that was situated in the middle of Towers I & II and built 12 more studio apartments.
Phase IV (Fall 2007) was a second renovation of Tower I’s first and fourth floors. During this phase, Eagle Park renovated dorm-style rooms along with several common areas on the first floor to add 50 more studio apartments.
Phase V (Fall 2008) was the completion of the total renovation process. This included restructuring the third floor of Tower I from dorm rooms to studio apartments. It also consisted of restructuring the second floor of Tower I into a new style of living for Eagle Park residents which consists of a combination of studio apartments and dorm rooms. Eagle Park refers to these units as their shared suites. Every two suites shares one bathroom. This enables their tenants to enjoy the privacy of their own bathroom shared with a suitemate.

The past ten years has been a continual upgrading of all units including new furniture. The pictures shown below are of Eagle Park’s most common one person studio.
