New Classic-Apartments.com Website

The World Wide Web has been instrumental to the success of Classic Apartments. In 2003 the original Classic-Apartments.com site was launched, its content, little more than a couple of Photographs, drew many wonderful tenants to our buildings.

In the fall of 2007 Alexander Bermudez, utilized the services of Lainie Liberti and her design firm Jungle [8], to develop a more dynamic web presence for Classic Apartments. In keeping with the minimalist design philosophy of the original, Jungle [8] has produced a website that has far exceeded all our expectations.

We are now pleased to announce the launch of the new Classic-Apartments.com website.

InvisibleMinority.org

In Los Angeles alone, an estimated eleven thousand men, women and children, live on the streets, including Skid Row and the surrounding L.A. area. As a provider of housing in the community, the homeless in Los Angeles is a social issue very close to our hearts. At Classic Apartments we believe it is our moral duty to help however we can.

Those behind Classic-Apartments.com have taken this responsibility very seriously, by sponsoring the InvisibleMinority.org project. The goal is to humanize the men, women and children who are living on the streets through the use of photography. Finding hope and humanity in the eyes of the homeless, captured through the lens of the camera puts a real face to those who are all to often referred to as a "statistic".

Classic Apartments is proud to donate time and resources to the creation of InvisibleMinority.org. At this time a launch date for the new website has not been set, Please check for further updates.

The Louise Street Project

2007 was a good year for Classic Apartments, after acquiring a 12-unit apartment building two years earlier, and spending the first half of 2006 working with our architects, the Glendale Department of Building and Safety, promptly approved our plans.


By July of that year the necessary financing was obtained and we were ready to begin construction. Unfortunately life had other plans, Shai Aloni our general contractor who had been with us from the beginning, discovered a cancerous lump in his throat. After the shock of the news, Alexander Bermudez, assumed Shai’s responsibilities and we finally broke ground in August. Thanks to modern medicine and Shai’s indomitable spirit he has since enjoyed a full recovery!

Seven months later the renovation at 1019 North Louise Street was completed and fully leased. To date this has been our most ambitious project and a delightful addition to our portfolio.
