read my past posts about this, it is a cursed property. Greedy owner Stanley Srochi sold out from under Agatha's to a developer involved with Georgian Terrace over 10 years ago, and the discloser over the water and electric, etc... underneath the property was not fully known until it was discovered by the new developers every time the property flips, it will never be a highrise, only a low rise, unless the guts underneath are changed, which must be impossible, otherwise it would have been done by now.

It's actually the parking agreements. IF the building were to become condos the parking wasn't guaranteed for the project since it's a shared parking deck for the hotels and the now vacant Agatha's site. There's also an easement for valet service for the hotels that complicates any sort of deal on this site.

Utilities in an urban environment like that are chump change when it comes to building a tower.

There was a piece of equipment at the 880 West Peachtree site this evening taking soil samples. This project was proposed back in September of last year (hard to believe how fast time flies) by Trammell Crow Residential to replace the existing lowrise office building and surface lot at the corner of West Peachtree and 8th. If it's still the same developer and proposal, it was a 22-story tower with 356 apartments and 10,000 SF of retail. It had been so long since we heard anything on this project, I just figured it was dead at this point. Good to see that it's probably not!

I remember reading something from a poster here about 6 months ago that the current law firm occupying the building was looking for new office space to move to. So this project, despite being quiet, may actually happen.

FYI Paces Properties has an updated rendering for the Atlanta Dairies site courtesy of Atlanta Magazine. Note the "music venue" could possibly be a relocation for a well-known music venue looking for a new home.

Land dev permit was filed for 1781 Peachtree St. Is that the property with the office/condo proposal?

micropundit · #**15429** Posted **Sep 2, 2015, 10:10 PM**

Mill Creek Residential showed renderings and site plans Wednesday for a massive 22-story multi-use development—with 400 apartment units and 20,000 square-feet of retail space—it plans to build, starting in 2016, at the southeast corner of Peachtree and Pharr roads.Mill Creek outlined its plans for the 500,000 square-foot project at 3005 Peachtree Road, across Pharr Road from OliverMcMillan’s Buckhead Atlanta. The Buckhead project will be Mill Creek’s third project in the city of Atlanta announced and/or started within about a year. The other two are its high-rise Modera development in Midtown at the intersection of Eighth and Williams streets and Modera Morningside, a low- to mid-rise development on Piedmont at Cheshire Bridge Road with apartments and ground-level retail.

That is way to clumpy, make it taller.

Pemgin · #**15431** Posted **Sep 2, 2015, 10:18 PM**

Buckhead View keeps reporting Modera Midtown is only 23 stories. Did something change or do they keep making the same mistake?

I may be wrong, but it seems like it is 32-34 including the deck of parking the tower will sit on.

I wonder if they will go forward even though the DRC shot them down on three of their variations?

Hmm, so this is the property that mixed-use permit was filed for: http://www.raulet.com/brochures/1781-Peachtree-Street-For-Lease.pdf

Doesn't look like the same property for 52 Seventeen Peachtree, but I never recall seeing a project for this address at the DRC pages.

All the permit says is:

Quote:

Land Disturbance & Site Work
Land Disturbance and Site Work to construct a mixed - use building. Grading to provide parking and associated utilities to serve building.

Quote:

BASE PERMT INFO

Land Development/Site Work Included: Yes
Scope Code: C3 Business Building

Also the DRC agenda is published for this month, looks like the consolidation of the properties south of Broadstone Terraces was in fact to build another multi-family.

There's the Peachtree at 7th project someone mentioned here a couple of months back. Interesting to see what that is.

You can see there's another development boom forming for Midtown in the next year or so. A 2nd massive wave of projects. 6 or 7 new large projects in the last 2 months alone?

It also looks like they'll attempt the Peachtree at 3rd project once again in that same lot people are saying can't be built over(though someone was saying something about it being shared parking).

Huge meeting this month!

Notice on the blueprints the "existing power pole to remain" folly. This is intolerable. BA has set a beautiful standard for the area along with the revamped Loudermilk park. The Elle development across from BA shaved a few precious bucks from their costs by leaving the bumpkin power and utility poles in place and now it seems this major pathetic will do the same. In Atlanta's most upscale area no less. How the local review board ignores or tolerates such a blatant aesthetic blunder is a real mystery. Atlanta's backward azation continues apace. Pathetic.

Good god almighty - Midtown is a rockin'!!!! Also, Modera Buckhead looks awesome. Perfect scale for Buckhead Village. Anything higher would not have been appropriate considering the lack of mass transit.

Yep, also remember JPX Works is the same developer building the really cool condo building on Peachtree Rd. So hopefully it'll have a decent design there like this condo building:

Cool your heels Kenny - your prayers are going to be answered in do time. Phase IV (or is it V) of the Peachtree Road reconstruction/beautification will remove all the power lines on Peachtree from Buckhead Village to just past the Publix/Barnes & Noble shopping center.

RocketSurgeon · #**15440** Posted **Sep 3, 2015, 2:11 AM**

28 stories for Peachtree and 7th? That kind of scale was inevitable, but man, Viewpoint is really getting walled in. Once that and Eviva are up there won't be many units left with long-distance views. That's the curse of being surrounded by surface parking I guess.

This is all fantastic but I am NOT looking forward to shopping at Publix after the thousands of units under construction are finished. With Tech back it's already impassable. I'm surprised a second grocer seems 2-3 years off... if someone opened a store tomorrow I think they'd be printing money. At least there's a Savi coming but what we really need is that Whole Foods or something similar.

Such an exciting time for Midtown... it's amazing to see this transition!
