The team at Albion Residential understood the assignment when they decided to plant their brand in Nashville. Building from the success of other Albion communities, they set to transform a former flooring warehouse into one of the most admired modern structures in this era of Nashville growth. Albion joins my list of a few recent and upcoming projects that rise above the “Luxury” monicker, a term often used today for a “new” development. Albion embodies a true Luxe feel that resonates throughout the property and that future residents looking within this price point will come to appreciate. The iconic structure, located at 645 Division Street, was designed by Chicago-based Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture.
The Property
The building commands attention as this elegant landmark can be seen from all roads leading into Downtown Nashville; particularly at the i65 gateway where the view is completely unobstructed. Defined by its radial edges and undulating facades, the property has two towers which are connected by sky bridges. For those who wish they could live above or below the sky bridges they are in luck (given availability) there are also apartments which are stacked with the bridges and stepped back which allows 4-5 stories of height above the balcony.
Stacked with amenities, Albion provides many opportunities for residents to enjoy living in this unique 20-story tower. Featured amenities include a coworking lounge, large fitness center with separate CrossFit studio, secured mailroom with refrigerators, podcast space, skyline lounge, two amenity centric rooftop plazas featuring a putting green, outdoor yoga areas, walking path, and grilling stations. The 20th floor features a rooftop deck with pool, sun shelf, tiki bar, entertainment kitchen, cabanas, daybeds, as well as penthouse residences.
The Neighborhood
Albion is situated in one of the most walkable and connected neighborhoods downtown, The Gulch. The Gulch has evolved to strike a great balance between tourism and livability. The slate of new apartments, condos, hotels, and new retail & restaurants offers the foot traffic that checks the box for businesses looking for an ideal location. Whether you enjoy local coffee shops, fine dining, award winning smoke houses, food from your favorite grocer, or need a quick outfit to enjoy the evening, the Gulch has it all.
The Residences
The thoughtful planning and design doesn’t stop at the building’s form and function, it is also found within its residences. Albion offers studio, 1,2, and 3-bedroom apartments as well as townhouse style residences on some floors. The residences feature soaring ceilings, wood style flooring, designer lighting, gas range with hoods, solid core doors, and gourmet kitchens and luxurious baths. Living spaces are spacious and great for entertaining guests.
