In the 1890s, the most fashionable neighborhood in Los Angeles was Bunker Hill. Filled with elegant Victorian homes and sophisticated stores for the socialites and trend-setters who lived in the neighborhood, Bunker Hill was filled with LA's sparkle and glitter. That changed in the early 1920s, when the neighborhood's location -- perched on a hill in the city -- began to be seen as an impediment to growth rather than an asset. In addition, the elevation of the entire neighborhood was lowered, a tunnel was built through the area, and the neighborhood became overcrowded due to the ever-expanding city.
The neighborhood was nearly forgotten until recently, when it began to emerge as one of LA's trendy neighborhoods once again. The neighborhood escaped much of the city's redevelopment, so many of the older structures still remain. This trendy neighborhood is home to some fantastic venues, as well, such as the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Broad, and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Property Ratings at 255 Grand
It would be great to have front desk double check labeling the unit numbers because several packages had the wrong unit number on it where our package was either mis-delivered or missing. This has happened three times over these past few weeks. Nice to see that we are now receiving notifications that packages arrived for pick up at the front desk because we would not know otherwise. The noise from cars doing illegal street take overs, donuts, revving mufflers is very disturbing so it would be appreciated that not only do the residents call 911 but also security/front desk to report it. The graffiti all over the building looks awful even though the paint was removed the residue is still very stained on and visible.
Love the building/people and staff. This has been one of the best moves I’ve ever made. Pups love the area and the park in back on hope is beautiful. Gym and building is always clean and good!

Overall not bad! Noise can be a bad now and then. Lifts do take a while at times and parking can be a bother but over all a decent place to call home!

I love it here! Everyone is kind, friendly, and the amenities are amazing. My apartment is beautiful. The moving in process could of been explained better, but it has been a great experience thus far
Very friendly and effective staff. I like the amenities such as the gym, the lounge, and the theatre room. I am curious as to when the landscaping will be done (trees and bushes) on the deck as I was told it was going to be done by August...

Lovely building overall. Service team and leasing team is extremely friendly and helpful. Looking forward to using the gym and other amenities on a regular basis. Although it’s in the heart of downtown, it’s quiet as a mouse in my unit. Beautiful view.

Management dependency has decreased and made living here not as fun or enjoyable as it used to be. The amenities we once enjoyed or were promised have not been working or working well for over 6 months! Communication is poor and prices keep rising!

Living at 255 S Grand has been amazing. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and the amenities—like the rooftop pool, gym, and resident lounge—are top-notch. The location is perfect, with easy access to great restaurants and attractions. The apartments are modern, with beautiful views, and maintenance is always quick to respond. The sense of community here is fantastic, with regular events making it easy to connect with neighbors. I highly recommend 255 S Grand for anyone looking for a stylish, comfortable, and convenient place to live!

The last few months have been a nightmare. Most of the staff who ran this place are gone. Those that are still here are almost impossible to find. Emails go answered; No one answers the door in the office; You can no longer pay your rent with your checking account and your charged a convenience fee of over $100 for paying on a card. One of the best places in LA is turned into one of the worst places in LA to live.

Gabriella and the front desk team were great. The viewing, rental, and leasing were handled seamlessly. The only issue I had was with Spectrum...it took many calls to get it all set up but eventually, it worked out.

Welcome to 255 Grand! We are happy to hear that you love your new community. Your 5 star review is truly appreciated!
The apartment is magnificent but one of the downfall is that I have to pay every time I need to do laundry. The residential lounge is nice because it has a kitchen. The leasing agents were friendly because they gave us free snacks.

The leasing office is impossible to get a hold of and they do not ever email or call you back. The front desk staff are the only positive part about this building.

We regret that your experience was less than satisfactory. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your feedback.
Unfortunately, I was caught in the change of management so there were some problems when I moved in. But things seem to have settled down with the management team. I still do not understand why residents need to make an appointment when there is a staffed office on the premises

This is a great place to live! Great customer service from the leasing office. Friendly and reliable security and parking attendants. Minus one star because the washing machine on floor 23 rarely works. However, there is a large laundry room on floor 2.

Best place I’ve lived so far. Friendliest concierge team, Michael especially! He feels so personable and always goes out of his way to say hi and make you feel welcome. Love this place and highly recommend living here!
Living at 255 has had its difficult moments, but the team here has made things easy to navigate. They have made stressful situations easier to streamline and things tend to go back to normal pretty quickly. I enjoy living here and have for the last 7 years!
Welcome the world where dogs live and humans have no place. Cant believe no has written reviews about the pathetic dog nuisance in this place. Dogs run around without a leash, bark at people and other dogs. Dogs sit in public places such as lounge and sitting area next to swimming pool. Leasing office does nothing and are always dog friendly. I am glad I got OUT of such a horrendous place at the right time!
I lived here for 4 months this summer (through August 2015) and renovation was in full force. I was told that Reno of the common areas would be completed by the time I moved in in May, but they still weren't even close to being done when I moved out. The management office is only somewhat responsive, never by email though. You have to call if you need something. The building location is very convenient and safe. The security is amazingly friendly, attentive and helpful-- especially Jon.
