Brio is situated between four of Los Angeles County's largest employment centers, including downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, Pasadena and Burbank in a transitional industrial specific plan area in the city of Glendale. The five-story, podium-style building has a total of 186 units and 8,282 square feet of retail space at the ground floor. The design intent was an "urban boutique resort" catering to GenY and creative professional types. Brio's upscale “hotel-like” touches and impressive amenities package aimed to set it apart from the competition. The apartment interiors not only come standard with stainless steel appliances, wood-plank flooring, granite countertops, walk-in closets and washer/dryers; but many of them also come with wine fridges, fireplaces, wireless surround-sound music systems and smartphone-controlled thermostats and lighting. Units are also exceptionally soundproofed to keep out not only busy street noise but also music played within the two main courtyards. Brio's amenity package includes a resident's lounge, full digital game room with free espresso machine, business center, resort-style pool and spa, zen-garden courtyard with cabanas, state-of-the-art “body salon” (fitness center) with personal training, a dog run along the perimeter of the property, and even a roof-top “woof deck” with dog washing station.
