You can see three options here: http://beltlineorg.wpengine.netdna-cdn.c...2016/05/Final-Presentation-5.10.16-3.pdf

I went to the meeting. This is just a nice sidewalk (or it would be if it actually connected to Bill Kennedy, but that lot on the corner has a different owner).

So glad to be corrected. This looks so much better. This is what Glenwood Park deserves for their stretch of the Beltline. I also like that it's not against those off ramps at I-20.

Absolutely. The east alignment with the completely separated pedestrian bridge over I-20 was the favored option at the meeting. Also clearly the most expensive, but we can hope!

Facade is going up on Atlantic House:

Any updates on 98 14th St lately? I'm living abroad right now and I'm out of the loop on a lot of stuff.

EDIT: Also does it look like 880 W. Peachtree is going to happen? I'm actually looking forward to this one a lot because the side walk on the south side of 8th is so horrible, and part of the project would be to create an expansive pedestrian walkway / patio along 8th.

Duplicate post. Delete me please.

880 W. Peachtree is in permitting. They've also been working with Google Fiber as they are listed on the apartment map as a building that will get fiber under the Alexan brand.

The Brookwood building with Houston's in front is almost finished, they are advertising this site now: http://www.venuebrookwood.com

Broadstone Midtown is also advertising a site on the fencing, but it is currently blank (Broadstone Terraces/Juniper/etc.) http://www.broadstonemidtown.com

Broadstone West Midtown is also being developed behind White Provisions development: https://www.bisnow.com/atlanta/news/mult...house-getting-razed-for-apartments-61847

Does anyone else think it's odd that 1270 Spring is advertising a "drive-thru opportunity"? For all that talk about making Spring Street more "walkable"....

Ah, I had not noticed the curb cut on Spring Street until now.

I'm curious as to what Broadstone West Midtown will look like and if there will be additional retail brought to the area.

Has anyone heard anymore news about the Smallwood, Reynolds & Stewart mixed-use office-condo project that was proposed for Buckhead back in mid 2014?
It was the project along Georgia 400 behind The Sovereign building. I believe it was to contain two towers, one large tower containing condominiums & office space and a smaller apartment building.

This pamphlet on Atlantic Station is showing a good bit of new details on remaining parcels

It lists T3 Wood office building as completing in Q3 2017 (that seems unlikely if they haven't even permitted or broke ground)

It lists AMLI's development on the land they recently acquired 230 units and street level retail. Based on the tenant map it looks like the retail is only located adjacent to the Dillards in a large space that could be designed for another department store, the rest of the street level is a small leasing office and parking (also looks like parking might be accessed from street level market street) (There are possible renders in the back of the pamphlet w/ coffee shop and la fitness in it)

Another multifamily development next to the Atlantic from the PAC Company that is 232 units and likely also not a high-rise given a large footprint. (website: http://pacapts.com/)

two 250k sq ft office buildings next door to the PAC company apartments that are estimated to deliver in 2018.

The tenant map also suggests that market street would be extended when the premier property in the back is developed (ala GE HQ spot)

There has been zero news about that project since it was proposed.

I was just thinking that the pace of development seems to have slowed significantly in terms of projects moving from proposal to groundbreaking. There are several projects that seem to be lingering in the permitting process for much longer than those of last couple of years. 880 West Peachtree, Peachtree & 3rd, and the AC/Moxy hotel all have permits ready to issue while the Hampton Inn, 1000 Park Avenue and Whole Foods have been in permitting for five months or more.

Modera Buckhead filed for a building permit today. 22 stories, 399 units.

Nice! Is Solis on Peachtree (plot south of Modera Buckhead) already under construction? This neighborhood is becoming really dense and luxurious. Makes me wonder if we'll see a proposal at the old Joy cafe location, too.

Does anyone have a render of 464 Bishop Street? They have already cleared land and poured foundations.

The Solis on Peachtree deal fell through - Preserve Properties gained control of the site and went with a slightly different proposal. As far as I can recall they've only demolished the existing buildings on the site. Both sited have some environmental remediation work because of dry cleaners and/or gas stations existed on both lots at some point in time.

Thanks!

As for 464 Bishop, I do not recall seeing a rendering. Makes me with Bishop St./Loring Heights was better connected with Atlantic Station, though. The walk is out of the way as is.

The owners did mention that the reason they were moving is because of a development planned for that property.

Yep...if there was a grid there, it would be easy to walk to Atlantic Station...they need a pedestrian bridge over the train tracks or something. You would have to walk all the way around to the bridge, then through the residential part of Atlantic Station just to get to the main retail part since there's literally almost no retail where the 464 Bishops apartment are being built at.

Perhaps the residents of the neighborhood that do something about it. Until then, it will be very inconvenient.
