A closer look at the residential.

Midtown Medical is another really nice looking project. I was thinking that Capital City could do something on the 1084 Piedmont (Skate Escape) site since they specialize in projects of a smaller scale than the typical development.

Yeah man it's great - IMO best burgers in the city and of course the gyros are amazing - Great to see that corner getting developed - my family has been working in that area for decades crazy to see all the changes.

That lot looks a little small for an apartment building. You think this will be townhomes?

I think the parcel is plenty large for middle housing apartments. Width of the lot appears wider than the apartments you find on Parkway, Boulevard, or scattered in Virginia Highland as comparisons.

Right. We don't see these built from scratch very often, so the city created a specific zoning to allow/encourage them. Basically small apartment/condo buildings with only a few units. These can fit nicely into established single family neighborhoods to increase density without plopping down a 6 story apartment building with a parking deck.

Townhouses are illegal in MR-MU... thank goodness. Atlanta doesn't know how to build proper urban townhouses, except at Glenwood Park.

I guess I'm struggling to see how parking would be incorporated. Is there another building somewhere in the city that could be viewed as an example? This is basically a narrow single family lot with a long backyard. I could see one strip of townhomes built along the Arnold street side...but maybe I need an example to visualize how an apartment could fit here and still be economical.

They generally don't provide parking. The requirement is very low and they get to count on-street spaces towards it.

There are many of these historic models on St. Charles, Boulevard, and Parkway. They're the 1910-1930 small apartment buildings you see all over.

Thanks for the Winship webcam!

Now all we need is one for 14th and Spring and 903 Peachtree.

Also this lot is on a corner (Boulevard Place and Arnold St). So let's say it's a two story building with 12 units. It would require 6 parking spaces, which could be on Arnold street, or potentially a very small lot like is often seen in small Midtown buildings. For an example, look literally across the street, at 560 Boulevard Place. Small residential building with 10 parking spots in a lot in the back.

Ground last week broke on Halidom, a mixed-use development in East Atlanta that will house the national headquarters of IST Management Services, at 1341 Moreland Ave. SE. IST, which has operated in the community for 15 years, is developing the project and will occupy a 20,000-square-foot space for its new offices. IST is a business process outsourcing company currently operating at 934 Glenwood Ave.

Available spaces include 15,000 square feet of ground-level retail and 8,000 square feet of third-level commercial space in the “mixed-use building,” and 6,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space in the “out parcel building.” Halidom will offer 220 parking spaces. The project’s multifamily component will arrive as part of a future phase.

Plans for the Stein Steel site (Beltline at Wiley) were released. 7500sqft retail fronting the beltline, 80 condos in a 6 story building, 16 townhomes, and 168 more units in a series of buildings with 4 units each. 408 parking spaces (enclosed deck, townhome, and on-street).

I hope it gets constructed anywhere close this

Crazy to see something like this get built there, but it makes sense with development marching south down the Beltline and Moreland.

Atlanta has changed so much!
