Connie and Louie Share Their Franklin Residences Apartment Story
Connie and Louie’s story began three years ago when Louie emailed fellow Wills Eye Hospital ophthalmology residents seeking apartment recommendations as he planned his move to Philadelphia for residency. Connie happened to be a current resident at Wills Eye and was first to respond to his email. She shared how much she loved living in a studio apartment at The Franklin Residences. Louie trusted her recommendation and soon moved into The Franklin Residences in a one-bedroom apartment.
