The five-story property features a rooftop sundeck with grilling stations, fitness center, swimming pool, spa, business center and resident lounge.

The location provides convenient access to public transport via the Pacific Avenue Station of the Metro Blue Line-Light Rail two blocks away. Cesar E. Chavez Park and Aquarium of the Pacific are less than a mile away from the community.
