This luxury residence at the Cortez Blu, an exclusive boutique building, isn’t just a condo; it’s a launchpad for an unparalleled urban lifestyle, perfectly situated just steps from Symphony Plaza, Balboa Park, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp. Step inside your eighth-floor sanctuary, a space totally redefined in 2024 to blend modern luxury with architectural distinction. The design choices are intentional and inspiring, featuring striking exposed concrete walls adding texture and an industrial-chic edge to high-quality finishes. You’ll find bespoke elements everywhere, from custom cabinetry with granite tops and high-end appliances to sophisticated designer lighting and hidden tech shades.
