COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION: Blu is a new living experience in Long Beach from the creators of the acclaimed Viceroy Santa Monica. This urban village community features signature design, contemporary interiors and inspired outdoor amenities, all in the heart of the East Village Arts District and just steps from the shopping, dining and nightlife destinations of Pine Ave. The Blu Grand Opening is February 20 and you can be the first to preview these new residences and get details on special purchase opportunities. This event will take place at the Blu Sales Gallery located at 350 Long Beach Boulevard from 12-4 p.m. and feature tours of the model homes and amenities along with great food and drinks. Prices are starting in just the $300s, so don't miss this opportunity to be the first to call Blu home. Blu is located in the heart of downtown Long Beach's East Village Arts District, surrounded by blocks of hip boutiques, cafes and galleries. It's also just steps from the vibrant shopping and nightlife of Pine Ave. and a few blocks from the waterfront, marina and beaches. Inside, the contemporary residences are influenced by the coastal vibe and modern living style with clean design, bright spaces, open living areas and modern finishes. And with entirely new construction they're impeccably designed and await their very first owners. The attention to design and detail continues inside as the homes are centered around an interior courtyard that acts as a social retreat and gathering space which connects the residences and creates a sense of community. Open air walkways replace hallways, ocean breezes flow through, clouds float above, lush landscaping fills the open spaces and pocket gardens add Zen-like calm - the scene is organic, elemental and takes every advantage of the coastal climate. Inside, you'll find a collection of flats, townhomes, penthouses and live/work residences from one to three-bedroom designs. Each featuring its own unique mix of granite countertops, dual baths, spacious showers and closets, balconies, rich carpets,sleek fixtures and stainless steel appliances. The courtyard is one of the most intriguing and stylish features at Blu. With an outdoor living room and fireplace, gathering and seating areas, a putting green, outdoor grilling area and incredible landscaping, it gives residents a place to socialize, retreat or meet friends and neighbors. Comfortable seating, stylish accents, ocean breezes, blue skies, it's a beautiful vibe and wonderfully contrasts the energy and pulse of the surrounding neighborhood, shopping and nightlife. Blu also features a lobby library and coffee bar, fitness studio and resident club and lounge, as well as multiple on-site retail spaces at street level that'll add even more convenience. Along 4th Ave., there are also six live/work residences that feature two-story plans for living above and working below with double-height ceilings, private entries, flexible space planning and incredible street presence. Perfect for professionals, studios or small home businesses. Blu is located steps away from the Metro Blue Line, giving fast and easy access to downtown and major work centers, connecting to many hubs and getting you around town with ease. It's also close to major freeways and the Long Beach Airport is a short distance by car or public transit. All of this is set to make Blu one of the most popular new addresses in the Long Beach. The signature Kor style and design touches set it apart and the location gives it an incredible contrast between urban energy and relaxing beach vibe. Prices start in the low $300s with 3.5% down payment options available, and move-ins are expected to start in early 2010.
