About 1228 E McMillan St

Live at the center of it all. The Williams sits at the natural hub between Hyde Park, Oakley, Eden Park, Clifton, and downtown Cincinnati. Just 2 miles from the University of Cincinnati and all five major hospitals, this walkable neighborhood puts you steps from restaurants, breweries, parks, and coffee shops. With a WalkScore of 80, everything you need is close by.

Built inside the former W.J. Williams YMCA, The Williams is a 52,000 sq ft, four-story historic landmark featuring 29 brand-new apartments. Completed in 1930 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it's one of the finest examples of early 20th-century Tudor Revival architecture-complete with limestone trim, a slate roof, and restored original details throughout.

Two apartments uniquely built inside the building's former swimming pool. Residents can also enjoy a quiet rooftop terrace with expansive neighborhood views (and a southern peek into Northern Kentucky). On-site, off-street parking is available.

The Williams offers the perfect mix of history, walkability, and convenience-right in the heart of East Walnut Hills. Amenities: Historic Features, Great Walk Score, High Ceilings, Nest Thermostat, Two Story Loft, Concrete Floors, Top Floor, Architectural Exposed Steel Beams & Corner Unit.
