The second half of the pilgrimage inside Orsini II, that sprawling 566-unit luxury apartment complex on the corner of Figueroa and Cesar Chavez, a project that causes much interest given that the developers are planning even more Tuscan-themed apartments around the city. And while Part I revealed volleyball sand insanity, let us now gaze upon the units themselves. One is a model unit, the second an actual unit (units reportedly start at $1,600 and up).Ciao, Orsini II.
