VOLUNTEER DAYS
Giving Back Together
Last month, teams from The Blake Berkeley and The Lark joined forces for a volunteer day at the local food bank. It was a meaningful chance to support our community, connect with one another, and give back in a hands-on way.
We’re grateful to everyone who showed up with heart and teamwork.

"This apartment truly feels like a 5 star hotel. clean, convenient, and very well maintained But with the warmth and comfort of home. The whole place always smells fresh and inviting. The clubhouse is spacious and complete with everything you’d need for a party, from kitchenware to entertainment essentials. The yoga room is spotless and even has a mirrored screen where you can follow along with exercise videos.
A special mention to the manager, Ms. Ruby! she is incredibly accommodating and warm to everyone. She makes you feel at home right away and adds such a welcoming touch to the community. Overall, this is a beautiful, modern place to live with amazing amenities and an excellent team."

🎄 North Coast Holiday Food Drive 🎄
💥 WHACK A CAN- HELP A FAM 💥
It's the most wonderful time of the year—the time for giving! We are thrilled to launch our annual Community Food Drive starting December 1st. This year, we invite you to donate your non-perishable food items to our beautiful, festive holiday display, located right inside the leasing office. All donations collected throughout December will be delivered to The Samaritan House to support local families in need. Thank you for helping us spread cheer and kindness this season!
At The Lark, heroes don’t just wear capes — they carry canned goods. 🦸♀️✨ Our team powered up to build an incredible SuperCan display for the North Coast Holiday Food Drive, and now we’re calling on our community of everyday heroes to join the mission.
Help SuperCan save the world, one can at a time. Drop off non-perishables in our lobby, boost the signal, and let’s fight hunger together.
Suit up, Lark fam — it’s hero season. ❤️
Did You Know?
❄️ Getting Cozy with Your Fujitsu Unit!
With the beautiful shift in seasons and winter officially here, it’s the perfect time to ensure you’re getting the maximum comfort from your apartment's Fujitsu Mini-Split Unit! Believe it or not, this sleek unit is so much more than just a fan—it's a powerful Air Conditioner and a Heater all in one! If you've been too hot or too cold, you might just be missing one crucial step. To switch modes, grab your remote, press the MODE button, and cycle through the settings until you see the snowflake icon (for cool A/C) or the sun/flame icon (for cozy heat). Once the correct icon is displayed, use the Up/Down arrows to set your desired temperature, and prepare to feel perfectly comfortable! A little know-how goes a long way to making your home your sanctuary! If you need further instructions, let us know. We are happy to help!
Important Gym Renovation Update
Looking Past the Dust
As we head toward the end of the year, we want to extend a massive thank you to every resident for your patience and good cheer during the gym construction.
We understand that it can be challenging to see the construction area and have a beloved amenity temporarily out of commission. We recognize your patience, and we see you staying positive!
Please know that our team is working diligently to maintain the cleanliness and beauty of The Lark property throughout this final push. We are so close to the finish line, and we can't wait to deliver a stunning new gym that makes all this disruption worthwhile!
