I would not recommend renting at this property. The elevator was out of service for more than 20…read moredays, and neither I nor my emotional support animal could safely use the stairs daily since our unit was on the top floor. I had recently undergone an MRI on my leg, and my dog was on pain medication for his legs, yet management provided no assistance, no alternative accommodation, and no rent credit for the time the building was uninhabitable. On top of that, I was unable to work because I run a photography business and need to carry heavy gear daily -- which was impossible with my leg condition and no elevator access. I had to temporarily move into an empty apartment I had just applied for since my lease was about to end just to have a safe place to stay and work while my belongings remained stuck upstairs. This meant hiring movers twice at my own expense, because the first time they could only move my clothes and work equipment. Communication from management was minimal and dismissive -- especially from the regional manager, Matthew. For tenants with disabilities or even basic mobility needs, this situation was completely unacceptable and extremely stressful. I will be filing a formal complaint with the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD) for habitability and accessibility violations. Additionally, if you don't want to wake up every morning to loud trash takeouts or struggle to sleep because of a nearby restaurant that blasts music on weekends (despite having no proper roof), I'd strongly suggest staying away from this property. Forget having your windows open -- noise is constant. Both I and other residents have called the police multiple times just to be able to sleep, since parties often go until 1-2 a.m., followed by trash collection at 7 a.m. directly under my unit. While I understand this may not be the building's fault, I felt completely blindsided when signing my lease. Future tenants should be aware of this, as it directly affects quality of life. Lastly, the building itself is poorly constructed. My AC unit and ceiling fan both made loud mechanical noises. When I filed a maintenance request, I was told that "every unit sounds like that." A few days later, the AC started leaking and required a part replacement -- confirming that it had been malfunctioning all along. Also they never properly clean the gym. They only takeout the trash and clean the bathroom, the machines and the floors are extremely dusty. I made mistake of wearing brand new white short there once and after they were so stained after using the dumbbells that I had to bleach them. I'm very glad I documented everything throughout my tenancy and only had an eight-month lease. Future tenants deserve full transparency before renting here.

Been living in this building for over three years now, and love this community. It's not perfect,…read morebut it's certainly a great choice if you're looking for a lovely, quiet, and safe apartment you can call home. The good (and not-so-good): ~ Area is safe and super close to shops and restaurants. ~ Americana and Glendale Galleria are within walking distance. ~ A movie theater (Laemmle) and a restaurant (Panda Inn) are on the ground floor. ~ Community spaces are always clean. Someone cleans it regularly during the week. ~ Occasionally, the elevator or garage gate would be out of order, but someone usually gets it fixed in a timely manner. ~ Walls are good and you won't hear your neighbor talking or watching TV (which is a huge plus). But since floors are the vinyl plank kind (except for the bedroom where it's carpeted), you can and will hear the steps from your upstairs neighbor. Unless your neighbor walks like an elephant, it is usually fine and tolerable. No biggie. ~ Finishes and materials, while modern, do not scream luxury or high-end (still look good, though, don't get me wrong). The good thing is that the building is fairly new, so everything is still in relatively great condition. Everything works in the unit, so there's little (if any) need for maintenance and repair. ~ When it comes to neighbors, it's a pretty quiet community. I've seen residents come and go through the years, and overall, the tenants here are a good bunch. Small families, couples, and working professionals. No loud, rowdy college students here. Just really good peeps. The best part of this place? Alex, the community manager. She is a ROCK STAR. From the moment I inquired about leasing to now (two renewals after and over 3 years living here), she has been nothing but a joy to deal with -- a true professional. She handles everything with ease, and quickly responds to questions and concerns. I have been impressed with her since day one, and she is definitely one of the reasons why I love living here.

I recently moved out of the Legendary Building after nearly 9 years--likely longer than most…read moreresidents who have lived in my unit since I moved in back in 2017. I wanted to share my honest feedback in hopes it helps future residents have a better experience. If I could rate each category separately on Yelp, I would. Since that's not possible, here's a breakdown of my experience: Location (5/5): The location is excellent. It's in a beautiful area that's very walkable, with plenty of nearby spots to enjoy the city. Everything you need is within close distance. Building (3.5/5): Overall, the building has many strong features, but there are also some ongoing issues that may become frustrating over time. Pros: Modern and attractive building, great rooftop, spacious floor plans, covered parking, EV charging, nice lobby, and a well-equipped gym. Cons: The dog park is frequently closed, the parking structure tends to stay dusty due to poor flooring material, and the pool is covered, so it doesn't get much sunlight. Neighbors (1/5): This was the most challenging aspect of living here. Many residents are loud and inconsiderate of others. Despite the building being non-smoking (and clearly stated in the lease), smoking is still common. Hallways are often cluttered with personal items or even trash. Unfortunately, even with management's efforts, these issues persist. Management (5/5): The management team has always been responsive and professional. Jennifer, in particular, stands out--she is respectful, helpful, and genuinely tries to resolve issues. She brings a lot of value, especially considering the challenges within the building. Maintenance (5/5): Since Ruben became head of maintenance, the service has been excellent. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and extremely efficient. He clearly takes pride in his work and is a huge asset to the building. Overall: If I were averaging these categories, my rating would be around 3.5 out of 5. Since that's not an option on Google, I'm rounding it up to 4 stars.

This is our 5th year in the building, and we thought it was time for an updated review since we had…read morea significant change in staff. A New Maintenance Manager "Ruben" is fantastic to have around. You put in a request at night, and he will show up the next day bright and early. He truly cares about the building and treats it as how he would want to look if he had guests over at his house, which is how I would wish the staff to work around the property where I reside. I recently moved to another unit in the building, and they were very fair while inspecting the unit upon moving out, which I believe is a pretty stressful process for most renters. Throughout the changes over the years, of course, there are ups and downs, highs and lows you will have; however, I have to say Ruben truly stuck by the tenants held the place together and made this place safe and enjoyable. The property is kept clean most of the time (of course, it's not perfect, with close to 75 units with lots of kids and fur babies), safe, and conveniently located. Overall, it is a pleasant place to live, and we are happy to be here!

The kids are well mannered - Other than a few chunks of Armenian families, everyone is of different backgrounds. I highly doubt anyone will experience anything discriminatory getting the place or staying here. It's just a good crowd and status quo. -I've yet to encounter a party or too rowdy situation at the apartment and I've been here for more than half a year. -My daughter made friends with one of the neighbor's kids, so it's a quick break time fun activity for weekends. -If you follow protocol to filing an issue, they'll promptly send someone out the next day. -You'll see their crew here every once in a while in the morning doing maintenance or just cleaning. They're really good at introducing themselves once and then minding their own business (not parking in your spot, not coming in your home without permission, etc). My daughter loves saying hi to Louis (cleaning) and Gerry (handyman). They're super respectful and diligent with what they have to do, being organized, and getting it done once quickly. -They actually clean and maintain the place. -Melody that runs or owns Flats On Elk is ultra nice too. I had to find a place quickly and didn't quite have things lined up. Not only did I get a good deal, it was of a higher quality and lower price compared to another place we were looking at a few streets down. She's also a good listener and communicator. Her and Gerry are good about doing follow ups to make sure an issue is resolved. Only real issue I had was one high strung neighbor knocking on everyone's door at night because someone parked in her spot (but then again I've seen her park in three different spots). I believe she may have moved out, I haven't seen her here in a while.

This is completely anti-sanitary and unacceptable for people living here, especially for families and children. The building management needs to take immediate action because this creates unhealthy and unsafe living conditions. I understand the cleaning staff are working every day and this is not only their fault. The real issue is that many tenants are being completely irresponsible with their dogs. People let their pets pee everywhere around the building, including in the grass areas where families and children spend time. These areas are not supposed to be used as dog toilets. The smell is horrible and the entire environment feels anti-sanitary and unhealthy. Something needs to be done about irresponsible pet owners because the situation is getting out of control.
