AVEN is a 38-floor rental tower at 1120 South Grand Avenue in the South Park district of downtown Los Angeles. The listing is advertised by Cushman & Wakefield. The building offers studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans plus penthouses, according to its marketing description; in October 2026 the advertised units were studios, one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms.

AVEN leans heavily into amenities. The listing names a pool and spa, a volleyball court and half basketball court, an indoor/outdoor gym, a clubhouse, an event kitchen, a coworking area and an Envoy shared car service for residents. Units feature 9-foot-4-inch ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and Fisher & Paykel appliances in select homes.

Location and neighborhood

South Park is the residential, high-rise side of downtown, between Crypto.com Arena and the Fashion District. Whole Foods on Grand Avenue, LA Live, the Convention Center and a long list of restaurants are all within walking distance. The Pico station on the A and E light rail lines is a few blocks west, connecting to Long Beach, Pasadena, Santa Monica and East LA.

As with most of downtown, expect event-night traffic, some street noise and visible homelessness on surrounding blocks. Parking is in a garage.

How these rents compare

For context, the Zillow Observed Rent Index (ZORI) for ZIP code 90015, which covers typical asking rents across all apartment types and ages in the area, was $2,775 in September 2026, up 1.8% from a year earlier. HUD’s FY2027 Small Area Fair Market Rent for 90015, effective October 1, 2026, is $3,610 for a one-bedroom and $4,450 for a two-bedroom. Luxury buildings like AVEN typically ask well above those area-wide benchmarks, because they are newer or offer amenities, views and services that older buildings do not.

Among the other buildings we profiled this month, starting asking rents ranged from $2,260 (Hope + Flower) to $4,595 (The Glendon). Similar options:

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Large amenity package: pool, spa, courts, indoor/outdoor gym
  • Envoy car service for residents
  • Walk to LA Live, Crypto.com Arena and Whole Foods
  • Large concession advertised in October 2026

Cons

  • Event-night traffic and noise
  • Downtown street conditions vary block to block
  • Top two-bedroom units advertised near $11,000

Is this building right for you?

Good fit for: Downtown office workers, people who want resort-style amenities without leaving the city, and renters who want to walk to games and concerts at LA Live and Crypto.com Arena.

Probably not for: Renters who want a quiet neighborhood feel, people who need easy beach access, and anyone uneasy with downtown street conditions.

Budget check: using the 30% rule, the cheapest unit we saw ($2,700) calls for roughly $108,000 a year in gross household income. Many large buildings also require income of 2.5 to 3 times the rent. Check your own numbers with our rent affordability calculator and estimate first-month costs with the move-in cost calculator.

Rent control: the City of Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance generally covers buildings inside city limits with a certificate of occupancy dated on or before October 1, 1978, so most newer luxury towers are not covered, though California’s statewide cap (AB 1482) can apply to buildings more than 15 years old. Cities such as Santa Monica, Culver City and West Hollywood have their own rules. Older buildings like this one deserve a closer look. Our RSO calculator explains how to check.

Touring tips

  • Ask which specific units are available and on which floors; view and floor height can move the rent by hundreds or thousands of dollars in the same floor plan.
  • Request the full monthly cost in writing, including parking, pet rent, storage, utilities and amenity fees.
  • Ask whether specials are given as free weeks up front or spread across the lease, and how that affects renewal pricing.
  • Visit at rush hour and at night to judge traffic, noise and garage access.
  • Read lease terms for minimum length, early termination and renewal caps before paying a deposit.
