Star Apartments, located close to downtown Los Angeles, originally specified traditional 3.4 lb metal lath, but Berger Bros substituted Structa’s high performance Mega Lath for the walls to ensure a quality plastering finish. Sean Cooney of Berger Bros Inc. said that his foreman, Albert Valenzuela, loves the Structa Mega Lath because “it rolls out easy, stays flat and is user friendly – and better to work with than 3.4 metal lath and woven wire.”

This project is LEED Platinum and providing 102 apartments for formerly homeless individuals.
