The historic Watkins-Cottrell building at 14th and Dock Streets was home to Watkins-Cottrell Mercantile for over a century. The distinctive red brick building has been completely renovated to accommodate attractive luxury warehouse apartments. A number of different floorplans offer amazing Richmond views, distinctive architectural elements, modern appliances and amenities, and more. The Virginia Capital Trail bike path is just across the street, as is the popular James River Park System, full of trails and opportunities for whitewater adventures. There are a host of unique restaurants and cafes within walking distance, as well as a range of galleries and boutiques. From Shockoe Slip to Shockoe Bottom, and along the length of the James River Park, a year-long calendar of cultural and musical events will fill your afternoons and evenings.

The Watkins offers a unique living experience with its historic industrial/warehouse styling and atypical apartment layouts. The leasing consultants, particularly Hannah, are exceptional - knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. While the property is new and I can't comment on living there yet, I'm optimistic it will be an excellent place to call home. The complex's distinctive architecture and attentive staff make it stand out.

I toured the Watkins a couple of months ago. Awesome location, in the heart of Richmond. Walking distance to Shock Bottom, Church Hill, Downtown, Old Manchester, The Canal Walk etc. 6 minute drive to The Fan District, 8 mins to Scott's Addition. Really loved it but unfortunately they have not finished building it out yet and did not line up when I needed the apartment. Regardless though, the staff was very professional and responsive. The agent that was helping me was Hannah. Highly recommend checking them out and I definitely will next year once my lease is up at my current spot.
