Franklin Real Estate Development announced Feb. 29 its 3,517-square-foot redevelopment project, The Franklin, has opened in downtown Greenville.
Built as a private residence in 1917, the two-story building at 107 E. Park Ave. features 12 offices ranging from 90 to 225 square feet as well as a shared break area and conference room.
“The Franklin is a great example of what can be done with old buildings,” said Kurt Wallenborn, a Greenville developer and broker who worked on the project. “These structures are built better than any new construction. The wood is so solid, so tight. This is like a custom house from one hundred years ago. It can’t be replicated today.”
While The Franklin was redeveloped into office space, Wallenborn preserved the structure’s pine floors and its original double-hung casement windows were removed, restored and reinstalled.
