Shoreline Gateway is a high-rise rental tower at 777 East Ocean Boulevard in downtown Long Beach. It is managed by Greystar, and listing data gives a 2021 completion date. The listing says it has the tallest rooftop pool and spa on the West Coast, along with ocean views from many units.

Other amenities include a 700-gallon jellyfish display, coworking space, a large fitness center and yoga room, complimentary fitness classes, bikes and a coffee bar. Greystar lists total monthly prices that include mandatory fees.

The listing reports a Walk Score of 92. The A Line’s downtown Long Beach stations are roughly a 15-minute walk, with trains to downtown LA.

How these rents compare

For context, the Zillow Observed Rent Index (ZORI) for ZIP code 90802, which covers typical asking rents across all apartment types and ages in the area, was $2,605 in September 2026, up 3.6% from a year earlier. HUD’s FY2027 Small Area Fair Market Rent for 90802, effective October 1, 2026, is $2,640 for a one-bedroom and $3,260 for a two-bedroom. Luxury buildings like Shoreline Gateway 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:

• Sunset Vine Tower (Hollywood), from $3,400
• Via Avanti (Sherman Oaks), from $3,361
• Anara Santa Monica (Santa Monica (Mid-City)), from $3,340
• Los Altos (Mid-Wilshire / Hancock Park edge), from $3,300

Pros and cons

Pros

• Ocean views and a rooftop pool and spa
• Part-time Airbnb hosting allowed, per the listing
• Walk Score of 92 (listing)
• Total pricing includes mandatory fees

Cons

• No three-bedroom units listed
• Long commute to the Westside or Hollywood
• Downtown event weekends (Grand Prix) bring crowds

Is this building right for you?

Good fit for: Ocean lovers, Long Beach and South Bay workers, port and aerospace professionals, and renters who want high-rise amenities for less than Santa Monica or Marina del Rey.

Probably not for: Renters who need three bedrooms and anyone with a daily commute to the Westside.

Budget check: using the 30% rule, the cheapest unit we saw ($3,460) calls for roughly $138,000 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.
