A strategically located property that could help continue downtown Atlanta’s development boom leading up to the 2026 FIFA World Cup has hit the open market.

The 314 Luckie St. property, recently listed with commercial real estate firm Bull Realty, totals about .84 acres between two main downtown arteries.

It’s marketed as a “high-rise development site” with a “prime” location, in that Georgia Aquarium is across the street, and major downtown draws such as Centennial Olympic Park, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, State Farm Arena, and other attractions are minutes away by foot.

Next door to the south is the Hyatt Place Atlanta Centennial Park Hotel, which opened in 2019, and the under-construction, 183-room Moxy by Marriott hotel project.

Bull Realty brokers have listed the property for $12.5 million and say its SPI-1 SA5 zoning calls for dense development. That could be a hotel, multifamily, or mixed-uses including retail.

One potential plan, as drawn up by Goode Van Slyke Architecture, calls for roughly 200 apartments across 18 stories. Other components would be 10,500 square feet of retail and 240 parking spaces.

Attributes of the site—positioned along Luckie, Marietta, and Simpson streets—include three street frontages, a “Very Walkable” Walk Score of 86, and “Excellent” Transit Score of 75.

The site is used as public parking today. One section was formerly home to Encore Hookah Lounge, an establishment forced to close by the city in 2022 following a security guard’s fatal shooting and what authorities said was 171 calls to police in previous years.

As a parking lot today, the site generates $750,000 annually after expenses. According to Bull Realty, the parking use “can be continued to hold for future development.” Or—as ATL urbanists would contend—not.

Developer Planning 845 Atlanta-Area Apartments

Columbia Ventures plans to build a new mixed-use development along Huber Street in Blandtown, between Howell Mill Road and Marietta Boulevard.

The Atlanta Business Chronicle reports the project, Huber West Midtown, will feature 845 apartment units in two residential buildings and approximately 20,000 square feet of retail space. Five separate sites on Huber Street were purchased for $15.25 million in 2022.

The Huber West Midtown site will cover nearly 9 acres. The development will be delivered in two phases, and the project is expected to be fully completed by 2031.

Columbia Ventures’ website says it has delivered several multifamily and mixed-use projects in Georgia, Florida and Colorado. Its Atlanta developments include the 208-unit Quill multifamily building at the Edgewood Candler Park MARTA station and Citizen O4W on the Eastside Trail of the Atlanta Beltline.

A year after construction began in earnest, a Decatur affordable housing venture has topped out and entered the homestretch of building phases in an area that’s seen a surge of development steps from a transit station.

The four-story building, Decatur East Phase II, continues the push across Atlanta and inner suburbs to create Transit Oriented Development housing nodes next to MARTA transit hubs.

The project, a partnership between Columbia Residential and Decatur Housing Authority, is slated to deliver 80 more units of affordable senior housing with direct access to MARTA transit at Avondale station.

The station is situated on the eastern fringes of Decatur, along MARTA’s Blue Line.

Expect one and two-bedroom units with amenities designed for seniors who have a range of incomes below 80 percent of the area median income, according to project officials.

Next door, 92 units of similar housing were opened in the project’s initial phase in 2018, alongside hundreds of other apartments.

According to general contractor J.M Wilkerson Construction, the new building’s amenities will include a courtyard elevated off the street, a fitness room, a business and leasing center, and other community rooms.

MARTA sold the two parcels totaling 1.45 acres next to the rail station to Columbia Residential four years ago, citing the firm’s track record of delivering affordable senior units.

The second phase of senior housing is considered one of the two final pieces of the southside master TOD plan outlined by MARTA, the City of Decatur, Columbia Ventures, and developers Cortland. 

According to the Decatur Housing Authority, the current project is on pace to deliver this summer.

MARTA officials previously told Urbanize Atlanta the first units should be available for rent in late summer. Leasing efforts have yet to begin.

Similar mixed-income developments that have opened near stations in recent years—specifically Marchon at King Memorial station and the Quill complex in Edgewood—quickly reached leasing stabilization within six to 12 months, according to MARTA.   

Columbia Ventures reported last year that Quill’s lease-up was the fastest the company has experienced, with 40 units being rented per month over a peak leasing period of three months, proving that transit connectedness and living options below market rate is a potent combination.

Hundreds of new housing units have joined MARTA’s Cortland Decatur East in the corridor over the past several years, in both Decatur and Avondale Estates.

The trend is also continuing just west of the MARTA station today, where a project called Halo East Decatur has cleared a full block and begun vertical construction on 370 more rentals, plus retail and plaza space.

Two Atlanta Shopping Centers Change Hands

Two Atlanta properties, one including a city landmark, have changed hands.

Plaza on Ponce and the Morningside Village shopping center have been sold for $36.1 million and $31.4 million, respectively, Atlanta Business Chronicle reports. North Carolina-based Asana Partners sold the properties to 26th Street Partners.

Plaza on Ponce includes Plaza Theatre, the city’s oldest independent movie theater. It will remain at the center with a long-term lease, according to the news outlet.

26th Street Partners is an Atlanta-based real estate investment company with a focus on the Sunbelt.

It is a relatively new firm – it was founded in 2023 – but the founders have extensive real estate experience. According to the website, the three recently “departed senior executive roles at a vertically integrated real estate private equity and development firm.” LinkedIn indicates that this firm was Jamestown.

A new office tower and key component of a transformative mixed-use project in Midtown has been delivered.

Ten Twenty Spring is a 530,000-square-foot Class-A office tower with 32,000-square-foot-plus floor plates and 10-foot panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows.

The tower has 15,000 square feet of private terraces and 20,000 square feet of tenant amenities, including an amenity floor with a tenant lounge, indoor/outdoor bar, panoramic skyline views and 10,000 square feet of green space.

Sozou, a new Japanese modern concept from Chef Fuyuhiko Ito, is expected to open on the ground floor of Ten Twenty Spring in summer 2025. The team will also debut Omakase by Ito on the office tower’s 8th-floor rooftop. 

“Portman has a decades-long legacy of developing world-class hotels, and this same caliber of design, hospitality and amenities is felt in every corner of Ten Twenty Spring,” said Travis Garland, Managing Director for Portman. “There is no other office building in the market that offers a more integrated, activated and amenitized office experience in a mixed-use setting, and there won’t be for several years.”

Spring Quarter also includes the historic H.M. Patterson Home and Gardens, where Portman is creating a day-to-night dining experience in the reimagined building.

Sora, Spring Quarter’s 370-unit luxury residential tower, opened in fall 2023 and is 94 percent leased. Amenities include fitness centers, an infrared sauna, a climbing wall, a golf simulator and outdoor lawn space. Sora also features coworking spaces, a pet run and spa, a media room and a resort-style pool and sky lounge.

The ground floor of Sora includes Pepper Boxing, an Atlanta-based cardio boxing class. Habaneros, a contemporary Mexican restaurant, is expected to open at Sora in spring 2025.
