Let me tell you, the natural beauty of the property is amazing (it's pretty much a forest bordered by a canyon, with an ocean view in some units) it's the very definition of a hidden gem! It's in a prime location with easy access (within one mile or so in most cases) to plenty of stores, farmer's markets, restaurants, and the ocean. To top it off, the friendliness of those who eventually became my neighbors really sealed the deal for me. And yes, this is despite all of the numerous negative reviews I had seen. Yes, this place has had its difficulties in the past due, in part to prior boards' less than less-than-servant leadership over the association, however, that has changed dramatically since the beginning of this year (2023). It is evident that homeowners have become happier as a result of changes the new leadership has implemented in association security and employee morale. It's not Disneyland here yet, but it is clearly on the right path to get us there.

I had an apartment next to the leasing office. The place was quiet and well maintained. I loved the basketball court, the jacuzzi on the roof next to the grills along with the view at night. Above all, I loved the security of the place. There weren't any problem residents. People were professional. You feel safe. Thanks Brittany for making my experience there so enjoyable.

They have lockers for your Amazon deliveries . The staff is super friendly and it feels like a community . The building host events throughout the year it's a sweet and fun way to get to know your neighbors . It's very safe . Probably the safest place I've ever lived . And the car garage is also safe . No one is getting in there . I would say most people in this building are over 50+years . So it's very quiet . I love the location too. Really no complains other than maybe I wish the parking structure was bigger but it was build in the 60s so I get it . And maybe the pool needs to be a little more modernized . Pool feels a run down . Other than that 10/10 and 5 stars on this place .

The ONLY reason i'd move out is to be closer to work (I currently commute for work but LOVE getting to come home here every day) - it makes the commute so worth it! Juanita is the best/most kind/excellent community director I've ever met. She is constantly looking for ways to elevate the building + the living experience + genuinely cares about people. I probably speak with Ronnie the most because I'm always asking random questions (lol) + each time I'm met with insane kindness, knowledge + simply just the best vibes. So grateful. Mike + the maintenance team are the best I've ever experienced at an apt bldg. They are quick, efficient + sooo kind! Any maintenance issues get resolved immediately. No waiting + wondering if someone is coming to help, you can trust that they're on it! (Honestly so rare!) Genuinely all of the staff are excellent at what they do + are the most kind people. They're super intentional about the community they create here + LOVE to host an event! We get free, fun events for almost all the holidays + they even host market nights!! + there's always free coffee in the lobby. FYI -The bldg/parking garage are super secure. I've never had any issues + I've even been away for weeks at a time when I travel for work + my apt, car + packages are safe + untouched. I've even had stuff delivered while I was away for work + the staff was kind enough to put it in the package room/apt for me - all you have to do is ask! -Great amenities/perks! Most of the photos on Yelp are outdated + don't show the upgrades!! You really have to tour in person to see how beautiful (+ honestly fun) it is here. There are so many gather/community spaces, epic rooftop views + a rad game area. -Keep in mind the valet trash, parking, package room are amazing perks that you pay for. Just something to factor into your budget. I believe we also partner with a dry cleaning service!? Super cool if that's something you need. -The location is 10/10. So many shops, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, creative things, the beach, the pike, all in walking distance! Scooters are always parked nearby if you need to go a little further too! -You can only rent 1 parking spot per apt so if you have a roommate it's something to think about. I honestly host my friends a lot + it's never been an issue. -Sunset view apt is top tier but that also means your windows are above the metro line A which can be noisy if you're not into typical city traffic/noise. It's honestly normal for LB but something to note if you need absolute silence. -The 1 bdrms are not fully closed in so you will get light pollution. You'll need to invest in a sleep mask or blackout shades if you need full darkness to sleep. (I haven't had any issues with it + use a sound machine for the city noise), just something to be aware of. -The community here is the BEST. All the residents are so nice + so many ppl have pets!! I love how pet friendly it is here + love meeting everyone's pups. -The rooftop views are out of this world. Coming home from a long day of work + drinking a glass a wine +/or reading (or doomscrolling) on the rooftop makes me feel like I'm in a movie lol highly recommend. Even the rooftop restrooms have insane views!! -They are Airbnb friendly if you want that option. I personally am not a fan of Airbnbs lol, but love that it gives residents an opportunity to make some extra cash. TIPS -Call before you tour to see what deals they have going on! Like if you apply within 24hrs of touring you get a deal on "x". Just call + ask! -Get a wagon to keep in your car/closet for big grocery hauls. Makes life easier lol -Use the service elevator for move in day! It's bigger :) they also have carts for you to utilize!! -PLZ TAKE A TOUR !! Trust me, just take the tour!! The bldg, the staff, the community - honestly just everything is 10/10 + the tour will really showcase everything they offer here (like FLOOR TO CEILING WINDOWS!) I genuinely can't say enough great things about this place + the people who curate the experience for us. I knew I loved the bldg when I toured, but seeing how the staff interacted with the residents during the tour really sold it for me. The community here is unmatched. Period.

I'm leaving a review about my experience visiting this complex. We scheduled an appointment in…read moreadvance and chose a specific time in our work schedule to come and see the apartments. In the end, we arrived about 8 minutes early just to make sure we wouldn't be late. A young man opened the door for us (surprisingly unfriendly, which is strange for a leasing manager). He started by asking if we brought our documents and what our names were, and then told us that there had been a mistake and that we were scheduled to view the apartments together with other people. There was no apology, no offer of water or coffee -- nothing. We had already arrived, and apparently we were expected to sit and wait for the others so we could see the apartments together. I didn't realize that this was their idea of an "individual tour." That sounds more like a group tour. When we said we didn't want to wait for other people, he responded with: "But you came earlier..." At that point I was honestly speechless. We prepared everything, arrived slightly early to make sure everything would go smoothly, and instead we were told there was a mistake -- and somehow we were the ones at fault for arriving 8 minutes early. I was honestly shocked. The building itself looked dirty and the windows were dirty as well. Of course we canceled everything and will never return. Thank you for wasting our time.

Vespaio two blocks away has excellent Italian food, and Messalina on the corner of 1st & Grand is great. They both have nice patios. The grocery store on the first floor has been renovated and is really spacious and well stocked. Pickleball courts have been added to the tennis courts along with a nice playground for kids. The Olympic-sized pool and jacuzzi remain a big draw and both gyms have been updated with new equipment. Some people say the HOAs are high but they include: ALL utilities including gas, electric, basic cable, water, trash and even super high speed internet; the aforementioned state of the art gyms (two of them) with showers and saunas, the pool and spa, the 24-hour concierge; and locked/gated parking. If you paid for all of those separately it would be a bundle. To me it's a great deal. The building is safe and secure. The other residents are lovely. It's never loud or crazy. Each floor has an up-to-date washer and dryer controlled with a reloadable card with an app you can use to notify you if you don't want to set a timer. The staff are friendly and really efficient. Any time I call for something they are right on it. After 15 years, I honestly can't imagine a better place to live in downtown Los Angeles.

Of the 3, Evo is the oldest and the other 2 just wow you with their interiors. In our search for a new home, we ran across a realtor who strongly suggested Evo. He said they have the most responsive, friendliest staff. They have the healthiest balance sheet/financials. I then made calls to all 3 asking some detailed questions. Only Evo was someone available to immediately answer my Q's. Neither of the others ever returned my calls, and I called on multiple days. Shout out to Francisco, the manager for his knowledge and always making time for me. This clinched it for us. When making the biggest financial decision of your life, it's not just how pretty the unit is, but does anyone have your back? PS. 2 days ago, when heading out to lunch I noticed the building back door did not close fully. I emailed the front desk walking out, on my way back there was a maintenance employee looking at it. Fixed same day.
