Envision Franklin

Design Concepts | ENVISION FRANKLIN 67 MIXED RESIDENTIAL Columbia Pike and Mack Hatcher Parkway, Southeast Quadrant New development should be designed to preserve the viewshed of Winstead Hill and should be set back 250 feet along Columbia Pike. Continuum of Care may be appropriate with agriculturally inspired architectural features. Building height should not exceed two stories to protect the viewshed of the historic Winstead Hill. Murfreesboro Road, Inside of Mack Hatcher Parkway The historic dwelling at the southwest corner of the intersection should be preserved and restored. The front yard should remain open space, continuing the deep setback along Murfreesboro Road. Infill development should be located behind the dwelling and its associated accessory structures. New Highway 96 West This scenic corridor should have deep setbacks of at least 300 feet for new development. Informal landscape design and rural features, such as stone walls, wood plank fencing, and informal tree plantings, should be utilized to sustain the scenic and rural quality of the area. Commercial and office uses should not front along New Highway 96 West. Seward Hall This historic home and its setting should be preserved. Infill should be single-family residential, which should be sensitively sited to preserve the viewshed. Franklin Housing Authority Franklin Housing Authority properties may include a limited number of multifamily residential in accordance with their master plans. Institutional Uses New Institutional uses and the expansion of existing institutions may be appropriate if the location does not adversely impact access, scale, and traffic of the surrounding area. New uses should be located along arterials or collectors and also located at intersections or designed within a master planned development. A Traffic Impact Analysis may be required to assess the transportation impacts of the proposed development. The conversion of dwellings in existing residential neighborhoods for institutional uses is not appropriate.
