Details emerge on Manchester apartments

Another 21 units for 12th and Bainbridge.

Over the past 5 years there has been an explosions of new construction and renovation in the Manchester area. Empty lots are being transformed into variety of domiciles. Richmond BizSense.com has the latest word on the apartments going into 12th and Bainbridge Street.

Local developer Ben Adamson is bringing more apartments to the Southside neighborhood with a new 21-unit project at 12th and Bainbridge streets.

Adamson’s $2 million project aims to be a sort of hybrid apartment building with a single-family feel in attempt to make the property stand out in an ever-growing Manchester residential market. Residents will enter their units from an outdoor courtyard, and there will be no common spaces or interior hallways to share.

“You have a key to your front door, and you open it and you’re in your unit,” Adamson said. “It’s not like you’re going up an elevator, third door on the right type of thing.”

Adamson broke ground on the project in November using a working title of 12th and Bainbridge. He’s preleased two of the spaces and will be moving tenants in on July 1. All of the apartments are one-bedroom units and will rent for $900 to $1,000 per month.
