Located on a two-acre site in the heart of Los Angeles, the podium constructed, five story structure features 208 market-rate units with an additional 25,000 square feet of available retail space. Designed for flexibility, options for studios, one and two bedroom floor plans are offered from 505 square feet up to 1,119 square feet. Apartment interiors feature quartz countertops, central air and stainless steel appliances.

Onsite amenities include an outdoor lounge with BBQs, a wading pool with sun deck, a clubhouse venue with full kitchen and lounge, co-working space and a micro-market for convenience items. The commuter-friendly property is less than 15 miles to downtown LA, and sits adjacent to the El Monte Transit Station and the Exchange at Gateway apartments, both of which were constructed by KPRS.

As a previously vacant site, construction of the Aston at Gateway is part of a long-term development plan for the area surrounding the re-constructed El Monte Busway and Transit Center. The use of energy efficient materials and resources was thoroughly considered and applied in the design and construction.
