FRANKLIN — Development on Williamson County’s first apartment community in 10 years is underway in Cool Springs just off of the McEwen interchange on I-65.

The 10-acre development, to be known as Dwell, will include 14 apartment buildings and a total of 258 upscale units in the middle of Southern Land Company’s mixed-use McEwen development. 

Southern Land Company officials credit booming growth in Franklin and new corporate headquarters like Nissan and Verizon Wireless for its plans to build the company’s first-ever multi-family rental units.

One, two and three bedroom units will average 1,100 square feet and will rent for $950 to $2,200 per unit, with amenities including a saltwater pool and cabana, private courtyard areas, fitness center, yoga and Pilates center, and an outdoor teaching kitchen.
