Downtown's proposed residential towers

[ATLMidcity]

Downtown Atlanta's seems to be gaining momentum in beefing up the residential housing stock. But is it real or are we getting our hopes up just to see the proposals evaporate with an economic downturn?

There are office-to-residential conversions and newly proposed construction.

So, will downtown finally see a wave of residential towers in downtown or will it all go up in smoke?

With CY construction now in full swing, I can see downtown gaining even more momentum within the next few years.

Agreed. We aren't feeling the effects of centennial yards yet, and won't until at least the residential and hotel towers are operational. Once residents and tenants are occupying those towers, patrons are pre-gaming at the restaurants and staying the night at the hotel, then I think we will start to see what its really got.

When they get the entertainment district operational in 2026-2027 things will hopefully be in full swing and other developers besides the South Downtown crew will want to get in on the action.

Not a tower, but this proposal is on White street in Castleberry Hill.

...and don't forget (announced) conversions for 41 Marietta (foreclosed for now), newly announced 40 Marietta, 2 Peachtree, 222 Mitchell, GP headquarters, 34 Peachtree, multiple smaller-scale South Downtown properties, 100 Edgewood, the 11 buildings identified in the CAP study... and probably more I'm forgettting. If even half of these + new construction go through, it's going to create the momentum downtown needs for a lasting revitalization.

Someone should add the Underground tower to the proposed - downtown section of the Atlanta Project & Construction List.
