Franklinton Grows With New Affordable Apartments

Franklinton just leveled up with the grand opening of Westrich, a 235-unit apartment complex where residents are already settling in—marking phase two of a major housing expansion. Developed by Casto and backed by the Columbus Metropolitan Housing Authority, this project pairs with the nearby River & Rich apartments and promises more to come. Managed by Oakwood Management, the city’s largest apartment operator, the buildings offer everything from studios at $1,050 to spacious two-bedrooms starting at $2,300, complete with quartz counters, Samsung appliances, and in-unit washers. Amenities include a pool, gym, bike storage, lounge, and even pet washing stations. Crucially, a $47 million loan from the Housing Authority ensures most units are affordable for households earning under 100% of the area’s median income—making quality housing more accessible right where it’s needed most.
