About this project

The Franklin Apartments site at 2302 4th Ave in Belltown, Seattle, is proposed for a 25-story tower addition and interior renovations to the existing landmark building, adding 285 apartments and retail, with parking for 179 vehicles and demolition of the building at 2306 4th Avenue. The scheme went through early design guidance (3018968-EG) and was carried in its Master Use Permit (3018968-LU), with the work structured as a phased project combining the new tower and the renovation of the adjacent residential building.
