A condominium association wants the City of Atlanta to reverse its approval of a planned 32-story Buckhead high-rise, saying it will make traffic even worse for an already congested area.
It also says it's not sharing any of its parking with the new tower, which would overlook luxury shopping mall Phipps Plaza at Peachtree and Peachtree Dunwoody roads.
The master condominium association for 3630 Peachtree seeks to overturn City Council’s April vote to greenlight the new Ritz-Carlton hotel and condo. It has filed an appeal with the Board of Zoning Adjustment.
The 13-acre mixed-use project owned by the Church at Wieuca in Buckhead came one step closer to reality on Tuesday when the Neighborhood Planning Unit-B reviewed the plans. The project’s developers, Greenstone Properties, are requesting that the property be rezoned from R-3 zoning to SA-1 zoning, to “allow a mixed-use development comprising office space, single-family and multifamily dwellings, and the expansion of some church facilities” according to the project rezoning application.
Developers submitted plans for the project in May which propose a 400-unit apartment tower and a 512,000 SF office building connected by a shared parking deck on the southern corner of the property, at the intersection of Peachtree and Wieuca. This would presumably mean the existing fellowship hall currently occupying that space would be demolished.
What is happening at 3354 Peachtree (Cousins Prop) in Buckhead? Looks like some construction is underway.
I think its this.

The proposed project includes the expansion and renovation of the existing back side of the office building to incorporate surface parking into an expanded structured parking deck with rooftop park and amenity structure.
Developer Kolter Urban has completed the purchase of a south Buckhead property where it plans to develop an 18-story condo tower, its second luxury high-rise in one of the city's wealthiest areas along Peachtree Creek.
Units could start in the high $600,000s.
Initial site work on the approximately $110 million tower overlooking the Peachtree Hills neighborhood could start by next July, and vertical construction is possible by December, said Aaron Taulbee, a Kolter Urban development executive.
Shepherd Center has filed plans for expansion that will provide additional and longer-term housing for patients and families receiving care at the nationally-ranked neurorehabilitation hospital.
