While it might not have received the fanfare of the recently completed Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Arthur M. Blank Hospital, a project with a similar philanthropic mission is rounding into shape next door.
Officials with Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charities have provided renderings, as drawn up by the Perkins + Will architecture firm, that show how the organization’s expanded facilities will look and function in North Druid Hills.
The new Ronald McDonald House campus will feature 110 guest rooms, active gardens, a green rooftop area, 18 transplant suites, and multiple dining areas, among other facets. It’s much larger than the charity’s current 50-room facility near Emory University on Briarcliff Road.
Plans call for completing the facility, which has topped out, next year.

ARMHC has operated in Atlanta for more than 45 years to help families with sick and injured kids, providing a “home away from home” and life-saving medical treatments in many cases. The need for such a facility in this region is rapidly growing, per agency officials.
The charity has recently launched a public capital campaign to raise the final $12 million (of $90 million total) needed to complete the project.

According to ARMHC, the nonprofit served more than 3,000 families last year, saving them $8.4 million in transportation, lodging, and food costs while providing more than 25,000 nights of rest.
Today, the number of nights families have stayed in its Houses has swelled by 77 percent since 2022.

Following several years of delays, a Doraville project that aims to revitalize and enliven a section of Buford Highway while creating a new northside destination is on track to move forward next year, developers tell Urbanize Atlanta.
Eti Lazarian, general operations director for real estate investment firm Insignia, says initial phases of the proposed Lotus Grove district are on pace to see vertical construction in summer 2025, with an expected total cost north of $300 million.
The 5597 Buford Highway site in question, situated just outside the Interstate 285 loop, once operated as a Kmart, which has been demolished.
Alongside low-rise retail and restaurants (fresh renderings provided this week show a food hall in the works), Lotus Grove’s initial phase calls for a 12-story building—the tallest in Doraville, per project officials—that would include 456 apartments and perks such as a pool and fitness center.
Lazarian said construction schedules call for delivering Lotus Grove’s retail and residential components by sometime in 2027.
“We’re proud of the underlying community sensibility and HERO aspects of the project,” Lazarian wrote via email. “When finished, the project will bring a more ‘city center’-type feel to the area, a vibrant place for people to congregate.
“With it being the tallest building in the area,” Lazarian added, “it will also serve as a visible landmark to draw people in.”

Miami-based developer Resia, the company behind a five-building residential project on Memorial Drive and another in Douglasville, is gearing up to build the first phase of residential, called Resia Lotus Grove, per company officials.
Gus Cabrera, Resia’s director of business development, recently told Urbanize infrastructure work on the residential tower has begun, and full development is on pace to start next year, though no project renderings are available.
A Kmart Big K operated on the 13-acre Doraville property until 2010, and the shopping center’s remains were fully cleared two years ago. That appeared to set the stage for Lotus Grove—and the continuation of development trends in nearby cities such as Chamblee and Dunwoody that are leaning into urban-style, mixed-use nodes.
According to Insignia’s website, Lotus Grove will eventually see two 12-story residential towers (with 780 units total) as part of roughly 1 million square feet of new construction. Other facets would include a national hotel and a public park designed to be activated for events.
Lazarian said this week the project’s full scope has not changed. The company didn’t comment when asked about development challenges that have delayed Lotus Grove.
Courtesy of Insignia
Insignia’s project description for Lotus Grove predicts it will bring urbanization to Buford Highway and help revitalize the popular foodie destination.
Three years ago, Doraville’s Downtown Development Authority issued roughly $120 million worth of revenue bonds that Insignia will have to pay back, plus a tax abatement in the ballpark of $40 million.
Elsewhere in the city, plans are percolating for a made-from-scratch downtown district that would help lend Doraville identity, while an infill residential project called Camino is under construction on a previously vacant lot.
The Lotus Grove site is less than a mile from the initial phase of Doraville’s Assembly Atlanta TV and film studio and greenspace complex, which has risen from the ashes of a razed General Motors plant.

Storied property called Atlanta’s first modern home up for grabs

Set among rolling hills near Atlanta Memorial Park, the former personal residence of the mind behind some of Atlanta’s most distinctive modernist landmarks has come to market for the first time in years, sporting a fresh interior and other updates.
Marketed as the city’s “first authentic modern residence” and a home “of unparalleled architectural significance,” 1028 Nawench Drive was designed by late, noted Atlanta modernist architect Joe Amisano as his own retreat.
The project, set on 2 acres between Howell Mill Road and Interstate 75, was finished in 1969.
Amisano, a Prix de Rome–prize winner who died at age 91 in 2008, left an indelible mark on Atlanta. He designed Lenox Square mall, the Memorial Arts Building at Woodruff Arts Center, the wedge-shaped 31-story Peachtree Summit tower downtown, Fernbank Science Center, and Peachtree Center MARTA station, among numerous other works that still stand, including other Buckhead dwellings that look cutting-edge today.
Docomomo once described Amisano as “one of the dominant urban form givers of 1960s to ’80s Atlanta.”

Constructed of concrete and angled to overlook a neighboring brook, Amisano’s Nawench Drive residence includes four bedrooms and five bathrooms in 4,088 square feet. A two-car garage is set at the end of a sloping driveway, and a constellation of clear glass blocks punctuates a main façade.
The high-ceilinged interiors were updated and reworked by architect Frank G. Neely in a way that, according to sellers, imbued the property with modern conveniences while retaining attributes of the past.

Highlights include a sleek, two-story great room, walnut cabinetry, a huge elevated patio (with waterfall staircase to the stream), a spa-like primary suite with views of woods, and a rare in-house dog spa.
Calling a revised piece of Atlanta history home, on this much Buckhead acreage, doesn’t exactly come cheap. The home listed at $2.49 million in late October and remains at that asking price. (Records indicate it last traded for $650,000 in 2012, prior to renovations.)
The property, situated in the Morris Brandon Elementary School district, is listed with Chase Mizell of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty.

Storied property called Atlanta’s first modern home up for grabs

Set among rolling hills near Atlanta Memorial Park, the former personal residence of the mind behind some of Atlanta’s most distinctive modernist landmarks has come to market for the first time in years, sporting a fresh interior and other updates.
Marketed as the city’s “first authentic modern residence” and a home “of unparalleled architectural significance,” 1028 Nawench Drive was designed by late, noted Atlanta modernist architect Joe Amisano as his own retreat.
The project, set on 2 acres between Howell Mill Road and Interstate 75, was finished in 1969.
Amisano, a Prix de Rome-prize winner who died at age 91 in 2008, left an indelible mark on Atlanta. He designed Lenox Square mall, the Memorial Arts Building at Woodruff Arts Center, the wedge-shaped 31-story Peachtree Summit tower downtown, Fernbank Science Center, and Peachtree Center MARTA station, among numerous other works that still stand, including other Buckhead dwellings that look cutting-edge today.
Docomomo once described Amisano as “one of the dominant urban form givers of 1960s to ’80s Atlanta.”

Constructed of concrete and angled to overlook a neighboring brook, Amisano’s Nawench Drive residence includes four bedrooms and five bathrooms in 4,088 square feet. A two-car garage is set at the end of a sloping driveway, and a constellation of clear glass blocks punctuates a main façade.
The high-ceilinged interiors were updated and reworked by architect Frank G. Neely in a way that, according to sellers, imbued the property with modern conveniences while retaining attributes of the past.

Highlights include a sleek, two-story great room, walnut cabinetry, a huge elevated patio (with waterfall staircase to the stream), a spa-like primary suite with views of woods, and a rare in-house dog spa.
Calling a revised piece of Atlanta history home, on this much Buckhead acreage, doesn’t exactly come cheap. The home listed at $2.49 million in late October and remains at that asking price. (Records indicate it last traded for $650,000 in 2012, prior to renovations.)
The property, situated in the Morris Brandon Elementary School district, is listed with Chase Mizell of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty.
