What Sets EVO Apart?
EVO is recognized for its exceptional customer service, outstanding cleanliness, and a committed homeowners’ board. Many of its dedicated team members have been with the building for years, including General Manager Luc Sasseville (7 years) and Assistant General Manager Francisco Rodriguez (9 years, 2 in his current role), Operations Manager, Xochitl (9 years), and Building Engineer (9 years). This stability ensures a well-maintained and welcoming environment.
Residents also enjoy an active social scene through the Life and Enhancement Committee, which organizes Super Bowl parties, happy hours, movie nights, summer events, and holiday celebrations. EVO also contributes annually to A Taste of South Park.
Challenges & Community Efforts
Like much of DTLA, EVO faces challenges related to security and homelessness. Management has enhanced security with a patrol monitoring system, high-speed gates, additional surveillance cameras, and a license plate recognition system. A potential shared neighborhood camera network is also under consideration to further improve safety.
Why Residents Choose EVO and DTLA
EVO residents enjoy easy access to theaters, restaurants, nightlife, and local events. While concerns about security and HOA assessments remain, EVO continues to provide a stable, high-quality urban living experience. With its dedicated management team, engaged community, and top-tier amenities, EVO remains one of DTLA’s most desirable places to live.
