New Glendale Apts. For Millennials are Tiny and Very Expensive

The Glendale apartment complex designed just for millennials (with very few things) is open for business. The Elevé Lofts and Skydeck "serves as a prototype of the type of housing that appeals to this generation: hip, technology savvy and very sociable." The seven-story building features "a sun deck with two spas, an outdoor movie area, a fenced dog park, a sports bar, a poets corner and numerous BBQ areas," plus groundfloor retail. Residents of the 208-unit building are going to need all that socializing space because they aren't going to find any in their apartments--the smallest units are just 375 square feet and will rent for $1,500 to $1,675. There are also two microloft floor plans available and a two-bedroom layout with rents starting at $2,575. Amazingly, the developer calls this the "solution" to young renters struggling to find affordable housing. It'll be interesting to see how it goes.
