Lincoln Place

I moved in at the beginning of 2022. At the time, Lincoln Place had four things going for it: (1) amazing location, (2) exceptionally well-maintained common areas and amenities, (3) incredibly responsive staff, and (4) relatively affordable.

Within the last 18 months, the property has significantly dropped in quality and now the only thing it has going for it is the location. The common areas and amenities are now in rough shape - for example, most of the common area grills are broken and... foot path lighting has been out for months in places. The staff now takes days or weeks to respond when it used to take hours or even minutes. The rent prices are now comparable to the rest of the market especially when you take into account that most of the property is 75+ years old.

The other reviews that mention the noise, dogs, thin walls, thin floors are all accurate, but in the past you could over look those problems because you knew the staff was doing what they could - not any more. Lee mas

Not worth the price tag. There is almost always noise around the property, especially many dogs barking. The walls are very thin so you will hear your neighbors clearly in your unit. Also, there is certainly a lack of community as most residents are not very kind and welcoming. There also seems to be a new update from management everyday with a new form of maintenance. Furthermore from my experience, management was unresponsive and uncooperative when an issue arrived. I will say the amenities of... the unit, the pool and the gym are very nice but overall, I would look elsewhere. Lee mas

Yes amenities are great and maintenance team is super helfpul BUT whatever you do, do not rent a first floor apartment here. It's been mentioned multiple times but we took a gamble and are paying the price for it.

You can hear, almost feel, the footsteps above you. When we reached out to staff we were told that we should expect "regular apartment noise" but the creaking and cracking is beyond reasonable noise. They even suggested we should leave a fan running to drown it out if we have to.

The... noise makes the first floor extremely unpleasant to live on. Our neighbors aren't doing anything wrong, it's just the building that needs so much work to fix.

We've reached out by phone or email, we asked to move to a second floor apartment even in an available but more expensive monthly unit. We were rebuffed because they only allow you to sign entirely new a brand new lease if you want to switch instead of allowing you to switch, pay more monthly but keep your same lease length.

So come here for the pool, the location and the maintenance, but be very very careful about which apartment you land if you want to be able to relax in a peaceful environment. There's a ton of postiive reviews because they farm them with giveaways too, take care to read some of the critical reviews for a full picture. Lee mas

Great location, amazing units, nice amenities, pleasant community, friendly staff, and remarkable service - I recommend Lincoln Place to anyone!

Having lived here for almost 3 years, there's no denying that this part of Venice has undergone tremendous change and growth, with so many regional favorites - from attractions to eateries Lincoln Place is the perfect location - can't beat being right by the beach and adjacent to the freeways.

I love the generous green space, management's canine-friendly culture, the fabulous salt water pool, world class gym, and covered garages.

The apartment itself is great! Spacious patio area, hardwood... flooring throughout, stainless steel appliances, nice finishes and large windows. There is plenty of storage and if you need more it is available.

I have never had any sound issues with my neighbors and if I did, I know management would have no problem addressing it - the leasing office staff are top notch and I can't emphasize that enough.

Maintenance is awesome and I have never had an issue with having them respond to my requests.

There are not many places that would understand my love of dogs and I am so glad Lincoln Place does. I would recommend this complex to anyone. Lee mas
