This is an affordable rental development that contains 256 units across four buildings (a lowered parking ratio of about 155 spaces), along with ground floor retail space and solar roofs across all buildings. A lot squeezed out of a simple minor variance, impressive!

The rooflines in particular are interesting, I would guess there's some nordic inspiration going on.

The first two buildings are effectively complete (55 Franklin and 50 Eighth Ave), however they still have 2 more to build on the property (59 Franklin and 54 Eighth). The building permit is issued for the third building (54 Eighth Ave) and foundations were poured a couple of weeks ago.
