Ventura

Avoid this building. It is far from a luxury building — very old, poorly insulated, even the renovated units have cheap finishes. The vents blow dirty air into the apartments rather than out so the units smell very bad. The worst part about living here is all the noise. You will be woken up by loud pounding noises starting anywhere between 3/4 am lasting up to 8/9 am in the morning and sometimes even late in the evening. This occurs in street facing and non street facing units. Management will initially lie to you and say they don’t know where the noise is coming from then later admit it comes from fairway loading. Then they will gaslight you by saying you’re the only one hearing the noise when in fact tenants complain endlessly about this before they move out. Do not believe them when the

DO NOT RENT AT THE VENTURA, from a former tenant 1. The building is above the Fairway Grocery store which means from the hours of 4-8 AM there are unloading trucks, forklifts etc The street outside is full of pallets of stock for the store and is a loading dock essentially. It is wildly noisy and will wake you up from sleep all night. The Ventura KNOWS this is an issue and the noise has caused tenants to move out. ASK about this issue on your tour and if they deny any noise issues or downplay it they are LYING to you. 2. On a similar note, the area directly outside the entrance (5 feet stepping outside the doors) is a “hub” for door dashers. Its a bit bizarre. There will be 30 plus people hanging out at times. Essentially many door dashers will hang out here on the sidewalk/benches, even

Absolutely love living here. The doorman are FANTASTIC and greet everyone at any point. Super helpful and communicative in any situation, big or small. Theyre informative on the area and give great recommendations! Kenneth with the leasing team has also been amazing. Any issue that has come up - they have followed up and handled it in a very timely manner. It's so nice to be heard as a resident and feel as if the building has your back! Also absolutely love the recently renovated roof deck. its absolutely BEAUTIFUL

We have had such a positive experience at the Ventura — from the doormen, all of whom are kind, proactive and welcoming (Bruce, Ira, David) of our guests, to the staff in the building (Ruben, Hansel) who respond to maintenance requests in a timely fashion and resolve issues quickly. We particularly love the app and being able to submit maintenance requests quickly, as well as the access to information that the app provides overall. And the roof is unbeatable. Highly recommend living here!

The doormen (Ira, Bruce, David, Musa) and the rest of the staff at The Ventura are fantastic - they are kind, proactive, welcoming, and truly care about the community. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for management as they continually miss the mark. The lack of consistent communication as well as failure to remedy issues as they arise are common occurrences, and very disappointing when paying "luxury" building prices. An example of this is a non-functional vent in the unit that blows air from an unknown source into the bathroom, versus extracting air as required by Code--the solution of which from management has been to tape tin foil over the vent to cover it, and the smells it sometimes emits, for almost a year now, with no ETA for a resolution in sight. The Ventura has the potenti
