GLENDALE, Calif., Dec. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mill Creek Residential, a leading multifamily investor and operator specializing in premier apartment communities across the U.S., today announced the start of preleasing at The Griffith, a luxury apartment community located near the vibrant Atwater Village and Los Feliz neighborhoods in central metropolitan Los Angeles.

The five-story community with lofts, which includes 220 apartment homes, features industrial chic interior design and a rooftop sky deck with spectacular views of the surrounding Hollywood Hills, Santa Monica Mountains, Downtown Los Angeles and city skyline. Located seven miles North of downtown Los Angeles, The Griffith is situated within a neighborhood that is both walkable and commuter-friendly.

"We're thrilled to be part of a rapidly emerging neighborhood that is becoming more appealing on a daily basis," said Samuel Simone, senior managing director of Southern California for Mill Creek Residential.

With our prime location and top-of-the-line amenity package, we believe The Griffith will offer an unmatched living experience in the area."
