No specific location details are available, but the rendering shows the apartment structures on a vacant property on West Franklin Avenue about 800 feet west of the Downtown ballpark which is home to the El Paso Chihuahuas Triple-A baseball club.
The rendering appears to show four structures parallel to each other, with the nearest to Franklin Avenue including balconies and large windows.
Few details on the project are available. According to the project's page, the total area is 11,800 square feet with the project budget set at $1.1 million. Completion should take place in 2015.

There are currently no further details regarding the number of units, rental rates, or parking arrangements for the Franklin Apartments.
Other apartment projects in the area include rehabilitation of old buildings and adaptive reuse.
