On this day, and every day, we are in deep gratitude for all the endless work done by our buildings’ porters. The cleaning crew really works tirelessly to maintain a clean and safe environment for our communities. Daily power washing, sanitizing high touch point areas to keep us COVID safe, laundering cushion covers, trash removal, cleaning all apartments prior to and after move outs, carpet cleaning and so much more! The labor they do on a day to day schedule is critical to our success. We wouldn’t be where we are without their hard work! If you see anyone from the crew around the properties, please take a minute to say “Hello and thank you!” #happylaborday #cantdoitwithoutyou #hardworkingpeople #amazingteam #gratitudeeveryday #cleanliving #supportstaff #dtlahighrise #community

Staying at home is a whole lot easier when your home just happens to be a Daydream urban sanctuary full of first-class amenities, wow-worthy design, and all the experiences of a boutique hotel. So if you don’t plan on going out anytime soon, we get it - sometimes you just need to stay in your happy place. And by sometimes, we mean always.
We know you. You’re not one to sit back and let others steal the spotlight; you'd rather jump in and join the fun. Which is just one of the reasons we like you so much. And that fun is even more fun when you enjoy a cocktail on us during the show. @BovineMetro Theater will host a virtual improv event Thursday the 17th, and you can either join them “on stage” or sit back, enjoy your drink and watch the show. The program introduces beginners to the world of improv and gives experienced actors the opportunity to get back into it. Nothing is scripted. Only the hilarity is predictable

“No herb left behind” isn’t the exact English translation of Sabzi Khordan, but it should be.

If the slopes are calling you this winter, they’re probably calling from Colorado. The state’s high altitudes make for some of this country’s most epic skiing: with thrilling vertical drops, famously fluffy snow, jaw-meet-mountain views, and one of the longest ski seasons in the US. So if you get the call don’t send it to VM, because the only thing better than skiing is skiing in Colorado. Okay, yes, that and apres-skiing too.

Hey Daylight Savings Time, thanks for making our days a little longer now, but did you really have to steal an hour of our precious sleep time to do it? Good thing we’ve got National Napping Day here to help us recover a few of our zzz’s. Created by a Ph.D professor back in the ‘90s, NND reminds us that naps are proven to boost brain power, lift moods, improve critical thinking skills and reduce stress. Not that we need an excuse to hit the midday snooze button one more time. Unless our boss is reading this, of course.
Even if your favorite thing to make for dinner is reservations, you may find yourself cooking at home a little more these days. Luckily, we’ve got the perfect kitchens for that. With sleek quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, you’ve got everything you need to make your own Michelin-worthy meal. Or a really good PB&J - we don’t judge.
Spring is finally here, so let’s get out those shorts and flip flops. Oh wait, we’re already wearing them. Never mind.
