Office Tower to Luxury Multifamily Rental Conversion

Newport Beach residential management company Sares Regis Group (SRG) is joining with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce for a Ribbon Cutting celebrating the opening of Arista Glendale Phase I. Arista Glendale is co-developed and owned by Adept and Octane Group, both based in Pasadena. Design and architecture is by Adept.

The eight-story adaptive reuse high-rise with 53 apartment homes marks the Phase I completion of Arista Glendale, a two phase luxury multifamily rental development. Phase II, set to deliver Q4 2022 / Q1 2023, is a nine-story new construction built on top of an existing garage, with shared amenities including rooftop pool, spa, and an outdoor entertaining lounge, complete with a fire pit, BBQs and cabana.

Situated in the heart of Glendale, Arista Glendale Phase I is reimagined from a stately eight-story granite-clad office tower built in 1985. The 8,372 square feet of existing ground-floor retail space has been retained with tenants East West Bank and H&R Block Advisors. The elegant entrance and dramatic two-story lobby speak to Arista Glendale’s provenance as a landmark office building.

Originally conceived as condos, Arista Glendale Phase I offers boutique-style living with opulent interior finishes and fixtures. All apartment homes in Phase I have nearly floor-to-ceiling windows, many with stunning panoramic views of Burbank Hills, the downtown LA skyline, and majestic Verdugo and San Gabriel Mountains.

Phase I community amenities include a co-work space; conference “zoom room;” an inviting and luxe resident lounge complete with entertaining spaces, billiards, TV, and gourmet kitchen; a fully equipped fitness center; and outdoor green space, which functions as a designated park. Residents also receive assigned on-site garage parking. When completed, Arista Glendale’s two high-rise buildings will feature a total of 98 luxury apartment homes connected by a courtyard. Arista Glendale Phase II will feature shared amenities including rooftop pool, spa, and an outdoor entertaining lounge, complete with a fire pit, BBQs and cabana.

It was my pleasure to work with Sares Regis Group on the Ribbon Cutting for Arista Glendale Phase I. In addition to PR, I also collaborated with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce to arrange appearances by the Mayor of Glendale, Glendale City Council Members, and our California State Senator.
