What's Happening!

3436 Dana Avenue in progress

We are currently working on the framing and HVAC, and the rough-in for electrical and plumbing. Siding is going up and we hope to have insulation and heat before it gets too cold!

New Construction! 89 & 93 Chicago Ave.

We are excited to announce that our next project is 2 Multi-unit new builds! We are currently working with the City of Columbus on getting the permits. Bids and quotes are out for excavation and all the work involved in getting this exciting project started. The multi-unit new build will be an efficient and more economical way to achieve our goal of providing training while also getting more affordable rental units available to residents of the neighborhood. Stay posted for updates!

Meet the Team!

Franklinton Rising is lucky to have Ben Trost as Vice President of Operations. Besides the "hard hat", Ben wears many hats for the organization including being a strong mentor to the youth and managing the construction projects. His Christian values and construction skills combine to make him a huge asset to our organization! Hear what Ben has to say about current updates. (Video)
