It looks fantastic, but I want provisions for the Multimodal Terminal - which I'm not seeing, and CIM has been coy about. It could and should be the anchor of this District.

I noticed that the buildings they will actually build next to the old Norfolk southern building are completely different and frankly more bland looking than what is depicted in their conceptual drawing above. Expected things will change, but I think we should all set expectations regarding the conceptual drawing
Yeah, Centennial Yards looks amazing. It's basically the 20s decade's Atlantic Station but better and more engraved within the city's core. Downtown really needs this. It's quickly getting left behind by Midtown.
Curbed posted a confusing article about the Interlock project.
Looks like the renderings from CURBED Atlanta are from a future phase that will extend toward Northside Drive as confirmed by a leasing official with SJ Collins.
Bank of America = Newport's thus far missed opportunity to show their intentions are something more than a long term real estate holding play. Now seems like as good a time as any for a company with such deep pockets to redevelop the largest building they purchased here. CIM is putting apartments and a hotel directly across the street, and there is an existing MARTA station a couple blocks away.

New Ascent Apartments, soon to be 29 stories looming over Peachtree Center Ave
As a downtown resident I am thrilled with this project. Ascent Midtown looks amazing, and hopefully this one will too. It is building on an existing parking garage, activating this block and area with hundreds more residents.

Does anyone have any word on the proposal to convert the building on the left into apartments? It's a great spot for residents and super convenient.
The new Candler Hotel is spectacular.
Imagine having never been to Atlanta and walking out of Peachtree Center Station to this.

Unclear to what extent the parcels will be but the rendering vantage point seems to be from Phase I looking Southeast toward Phase II.
Interesting, I thought Curbed was just being sloppy. I wonder actually if that view is from the northeast corner, Ethel and Northside, looking southwest, and the other view in the article is from 11th and Northside looking northwest. Would seem to line up with the slopes around that block. Regardless, happy to see some of the West Midtown activity make its way to Northside.

I was thinking the exact same thing about the street perspectives in each of the two renderings. I believe these renderings suggest that the hotel/office 13-story building would run along 11th, and the multi-family/condo building would run along Northside. Makes sense for the four-lane road depicted in the one rendering to be Northside, and the grade/slope of the road in the rendering makes sense to be that section of Northside as well. If so, I think this would be an awesome addition to the area.
You're welcome. I started coming to this site (getting close to two decades now yikes) to see all of the construction and development photo updates, which seem to have largely gone by the wayside now. I hope to get back out and get some more shots of Midtown and Buckhead development, but wanted to show folks what is going on Downtown. It is not dead as some seem to think, and is filling in in all the right places. It is hard for me to fall asleep at night when I start thinking about how incredible this part of the city will be when it is filled in from Turner Field to North Ave. I may have to wait for a few decades, but hey, I don't have anything better to do.

You're correct...I've fixed the prospective site plan after comparing the grades as well.
Makes much more sense having the retail below the residential front Northside as well.
Since Icon Midtown's mural from their renderings turned out to be similar to the actual piece, is it safe to assume that mural will go up? Because I really hope so. Have they announced an artist?
They've pretty much removed all the remnants of the building so all they need to do is dig out the pavement from the parking lot and we'll be ready to go.
