The project -- called The Helix at University Village -- features 100 units (52 two-bedroom apartments, 24 one-bedroom apartments and 24 studio apartments) in a four-story building.

Amenities include access-controlled entry, high-speed wireless Internet service and two outdoor courtyards that can accommodate both quiet study and student events. The Helix has 1 laundry room, five group-study rooms, and a rooftop patio offering views of the San Gabriel Mountains.

Rental prices currently (for the 2007-08 academic year) are $935-$975 per month for a studio, $1,200-$1,250 per month for a one-bedroom apartment, and $1,550-$1,650 for a two-bedroom apartment. Prices include basic cable, internet access, water, trash and gas. The Helix also provides a stove, microwave and refrigerator in one and two bedrooms.
