I've noticed that they have put a fence around 13th Street where the Atlantic house project is going up so I guess the tower will be going up first before the garage

That looks really cool. I like when architects incorporate different façade styles for various sections of the building like this.

Construction of One Museum Place has begun.

More good news for Tech Square/the future HPC building.

RIB Software AG will relocate its North American headquarters to a proposed 700,000 square foot mixed-use tower in Midtown's Technology Square.

Did they just add another 100,000 sqft to this project? In the past, they mentioned the building being 600K not 700K.

Hanover Midtown. The one to occupy the Checkers filed a land dev. permit today. Hanover also filed permits for the Hanover Park Place which is at Pharr and Old Decatur in Buckhead.

It will have completely below ground parking:

Land Development Hanover Midtown
The land disturbance for a proposed 6-story residential building. the project includes a 4-story below ground parking deck and ground floor retail space. The project also include streetscape improvements, vehicular and loading access, utility service and stormwater management.

below ground parking? that's a serious change for atlanta development. here's hoping it becomes a trend.

I might add Post Millenium and AMLI Arts Center to that list.

Hell, maybe even 811 and 22 14th if we're lucky. Also Alta on the park said they wanted to break ground this summer I think.

Don't forget about the Post project on 11th. That should break ground this quarter.

I can't wrap my head around how a 24 story building (SQ5, UH) can have fewer units than a 6 story building (Hanover).

Are the footprints really that much smaller?

It won't. There's too much rock.

Modera Midtown also filed permits and is a likely contender (29 floors). I would also say AMLI is likely (30 floors).

There are a lot more proposed, especially the three around Piedmont Park. At least one of those will go up (likely Alta).

I think the total square footage for the student buildings are likely larger. UH says "700+ beds" and Square on Fifth supposedly has offices. But nonetheless, point taken: it's surprising such a "small" building on a not-huge lot can have so many units.

I guess that's what drives the economics of the below-ground parking for this project: stick-build a lowrise apartment on top of a below-ground garage and push the building right out to the property limits, and you'll end up with almost as many units per acre as a podium-garage with a tower or tower adjacent to a parking garage.

I still like the shiny tall buildings at 12th & Crescent more though

[testarossa50]

Adding the three project mentioned above, here's how the likely 2015 groundbreaking projects look:

Likely Contenders (2015 groundbreaking probable) - 1,972 units:

Hanover Midtown (326 units)
Atlantic House (400 units)
Broadstone Terraces (218 units)
Post Midtown Millenium (327 units)
AMLI Midtown (351 units)
Modera (350 units)

What's really crazy is that with all the development happening right now, it looks probable that an even bigger wave of new high rises is in the pipeline.

I'm confused. I thought we decided the Hanover actually had a tower, it just wasn't depicted in the rendering. Was that another project?

EDIT: Upon further investigation it looks like it really is 6 stories. I really can't picture that many units filling that lot.

Different project. That was Modera (90 Peachtree Place).

Thanks. With all of this activity it's difficult to keep things straight. Good problem to have I guess.

Do you think this will put pressure on that low rise funeral home across from Checkers to relocate somewhere else.
