25,000 sf of street-front retail

The article reiterates the condo. Again, i believe they're seeking financing from Fulton county specifically for these items and not the residential portion. Same goes for MU. I do not expect the residential to be dropped from either project.

I believe Metlife is bringing in an apartment developer for the residential tower whereas Selig is developing the condos building themselves. They may only build the condo tower after pre-sales.

But aren't all the towers connected on the podium? How can they build without building the whole thing?

This is just a guess but they could build the deck and add the tower on top of it later or they could leave an Atlantic Station style hole.

There was a time when I hated the Atlantic-Station-Style-Holes but then I realized if it had been at ground level, there would have been surface parking lots for the last 10 years (and probably forever). So, A-S-S-Holes are fine with me now

I guess that's the simplest (and most likely) explanation which is that they will not seek tax breaks for the residential component.

I guess that's the simplest (and most likely) explanation which is that they are just not seeking tax breaks for the residential component but it is still a part of the plan.

Seems that the base of the office building has been altered a bit. This is from an ad for the architect in the latest ABC (sorry for huge size):

Street Advocate · #**131** Posted **Feb 3, 2019, 9:04 PM**

Nice addition- also appears the amount of floors may have increased at least one more.
Prior rendering:

Bring on google to this tower!!

Atlriser · #**132** Posted **Feb 4, 2019, 3:14 AM**

The entrance on the new rendering doesn’t match the style of the building at all. Hope it’s incorrect

Bizjournals article about Google's forthcoming $13B dollar investment across the country, including new office in Georgia, presumably to 1105 West Peachtree. Link to Google's blog announcing the expansion within:

I saw this recently. I would assume this is what the final product will look like if this is what the model looks like. I hope the glass is dark grey like this. Everything lately has been an ocean blue kinda color.
