Or maybe the project will launch one... very exciting to see this one commence

Sorry guys no webcam, but since this (I love it, but also fu*cking hate it) project is right under my nose, I'll be posting lots of update pics.

I'm just praying that a crane does not go up on that site. My amazing surround view will be ruined.

It's called a hoe ram. Used to break up rock, etc.

Yes this is an older rendering the apartment building is different and the office building is in reverse meaning the taller part of the building is actually going to be facing West Peachtree Street

Development of Regional Impact filing for Project Fusion (Norfolk Southern HQ)

https://apps.dca.ga.gov/DRI/InitialForm.aspx?driid=2887

1,400,000 SF (22,703 SF Daycare; 1,365,441 SF Office; 11,856 SF Retail)

This thing keeps getting bigger!

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

That is similar floor area of office space to the size of Bank of America building.

Wow. I wonder if they intend for NS to be the anchor tenant of a larger project rather than just the sole tenant.

The article on Bizjournal said Norfolk was anchoring Project Fusion, which would imply not being the sole tenant.

They have updated the article to indicate it is now part of a 1.4M sq ft. development.

Atlanta real estate company Cousins Properties Inc. (NYSE: CUZ) has filed plans to develop a 1.4 million-square-foot development in Midtown’s Technology Square anchored by the new Norfolk Southern Corp. headquarters.

The project at 650 West Peachtree St. includes 1.3 million square feet of office space and about 12,000 square feet for retail space, according to plans filed with the state through its Development of Regional Impact (DRI) program.

They still state NS will be in a development with 856K of space - so maybe that is one tower, and another 500K or so in a second tower? If so, that would be a solid height tower, even with a fairly large floor plate.

Any guess on when we might see one? Weeks, months?

My sources tell me it is imminent. Weeks, months probably.

If it's really being presented at the next DRC meeting, then it'll be about 3 weeks.

Curbed with the scoop on the new Start Metals project:
"Star Metals, led by developer Allen Morris, is planning a 175-foot-tall, 150-key hotel at the corner of Howell Mill Road and Edgehill Avenue.


Fans of the eateries near the 0.7-acre project site needn’t worry, said Nathan Hedges, director of development for Allen Morris.


La Fonda Latina and the Greater Good BBQ won’t be impacted by the $100 million hotel’s construction, which is slated to kick off in the third quarter of 2019, Hedges tells Curbed Atlanta.

The hotel, however, will replace a law office and furniture store (Direct Furniture Outlet) currently operating at the site. A specific hotel brand wasn’t specified; tentatively, it’s being called Star Metals Hotel."

Also to include 6 condos. Lmao. Condo construction has been dismal in Atlanta.

Rooftop forest bar sounds amazing. Can we get a spot like Le Bain here?
