Atelier is a downtown Los Angeles high-rise at 801 South Olive Street, at Eighth and Olive between the Historic Core and South Park. Listing data gives a 2016 completion date, and the building is marketed by LyvWell. It offers studios through three-bedrooms, plus penthouses.

The listing describes the pricing as “all-in”: the advertised figure includes base rent and required monthly fees based on default selections, but not optional or usage-based fees. Notable amenities include a pool, a pet spa and dog run, a screening room, a yoga terrace, a private dining terrace and an on-site car wash. The listing also says renters insurance with at least $100,000 of liability coverage is required.

Location and neighborhood

Eighth and Olive puts you a few blocks from Pershing Square, the Jewelry District and the Broadway theaters, and about the same distance from the restaurants of South Park. The 7th St/Metro Center station, where the A, B, D and E lines meet, is roughly a 10-minute walk. Downtown’s grocery options, bars and coffee shops are within a short walk.

How these rents compare

For context, the Zillow Observed Rent Index (ZORI) for ZIP code 90014, which covers typical asking rents across all apartment types and ages in the area, was $2,883 in September 2026, up 3.4% from a year earlier. HUD’s FY2027 Small Area Fair Market Rent for 90014, effective October 1, 2026, is $3,100 for a one-bedroom and $3,820 for a two-bedroom. Luxury buildings like Atelier 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:

• AVEN (South Park, Downtown LA), from $2,700
• ARQ (West Adams / Cumulus District), from $3,147
• Esprit Marina del Rey (Marina del Rey), from $3,206
• Beaudry (Downtown LA (City West edge)), from $2,449

Pros and cons

Pros

• Studios through three-bedrooms plus penthouses
• All-in pricing that includes required monthly fees
• Pet spa, dog run, screening room, yoga terrace
• Walkable to Metro Center and Pershing Square

Cons

• Renters insurance with $100,000 liability required
• Downtown noise and street conditions
• Three-bedroom asking rent above $9,000

Is this building right for you?

Good fit for: Downtown workers, renters who want one of the broadest unit mixes in the area (studio to three-bedroom), and pet owners who want a dog run and pet spa in the building.

Probably not for: Renters who need a quiet residential street or plan to drive everywhere at rush hour.

Budget check: using the 30% rule, the cheapest unit we saw ($2,858) calls for roughly $114,000 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. 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.
