LOS ANGELES - March 7, 2006 - The ground has broken on Evo, the premier building of The South Group’s trio of new South Park condominium projects, offering buyers a collection of couture high-rise homes in the heart of downtown Los Angeles.
Evo’s architecture is about dramatic lines, a façade of brilliant glass and polished metallic paneling with a composition of elements and materials that will bring sophistication to South Park’s new “South” neighborhood. Evo pushes the boundaries of contemporary design and continues a course of aesthetic focus and modern construction.
Set for completion in late 2007, the elegant urban condos of Evo will be located at 1155 S. Grand Avenue, and along with The South Group’s Elleven and Luma residences, form the initial phase of the new South neighborhood – the first new ground-up residential buildings in downtown Los Angeles in over 20 years. Elleven and Luma are currently under construction and sold out, demonstrating the demand for new high-quality downtown living environments.
For trendsetters seeking an upscale urban living experience, the time to act is now. To be among the first to claim an address at Evo, prospective buyers are encouraged to visit the Web site at www.evo-south.com and join the interest list, stop in the South Sales Center at 707 S. Grand Avenue or call (213) 622-5400.
Evo firmly establishes South as the pinnacle of urban living in downtown Los Angeles. Evo’s refined, modern 23-story building will feature 311 residences including five two-story, ground level townhomes with prices starting in the high $400,000s to over $3,000,000. Floor plans range up to 3,500 square feet and include exterior balconies, operable windows, large walk-in closets, ceiling heights to 11 feet and in some locations expansive outdoor terraces overlooking the Los Angeles skyline.
Evo’s interiors include luxury touches, sophisticated finishes and top-drawer appliances that balance clean lines and rich textures. Hardwood floors are available in a variety of choices including White Oak, Indonesian Cherry, Merbau and Fumed White Oak. Choices for wood cabinetry include Wenge, vertical grain Fir, quartered Zebrawood and quartered Macassar Ebony. Caesar Stone slab countertops are available in four colors, and designer fixtures by Bosch, Fisher & Paykel, Amana and Kohler continue the spirit of style and distinction.
Building amenities at Evo will include three levels of electronically-gated underground parking,

Evo is part of The South Group’s commitment to creating a neighborhood within a neighborhood. South’s important mix of uses – retail and residential – creates elegant density and a vibrant, 24-hour neighborhood that incorporates green space, areas for community gatherings, along with quiet retreats and pathways. Plans are also underway for a park and additional residential buildings nearby.
Situated just two blocks from Staples Center and AEG’s emerging Sports and Entertainment District, Evo will be easily accessible to L.A.’s vibrant arts and cultural activities. Gardens, quiet retreats and pathways will provide residents with the best of leisure – along with the allure of downtown energy.
Leading the way environmentally, Evo will incorporate sustainable materials; energy-efficient construction techniques and amenities that are expected to earn a LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification from the U. S. Green Building Council.
