Martinman 86 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) Aqua, a 25-story condominium tower meant to bring a touch of Miami's famed South Beach to Midtown, is now under construction at the corner of West Peachtree and 10th streets. The target audience is executives and young professionals. The 84 units will be larger than typical in Midtown, averaging 1,800 square feet, and each will be served by direct, private elevator service. Prices range from the mid $200,000s for a one-bedroom unit to the low $800,000s for a three-bedroom.

Andrea 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) Thanks, Hybrid. I drove by there the other day and was wondering what the finished product might look like. It'll make a fabulous home for the Opera, and a lot of other things, too! Edited March 14, 2006 by Andrea Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ironchapman 2 Report post Posted April 4, 2006 I stumbled across this in news searches: 'High-end' project planned for Virginia-Highland A four-story retail and residential project is in the works for the Virginia-Highland shopping district of Atlanta, an area known more for little boutiques and restaurants than large-scale development. North Highland Property Development has filed initial permits for a $15 million project Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UrbanAtl 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2006 I would like to see them keep with the neighborhood and maintain a one to two story street front and then step the residential units back another 15-20 feet from the street. Sounds like it will be a good project for the area. Oooops! I just saw Teshoda's posting and yes the project does step back as it goes up. Way to go!

Newnan_Eric 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 I can't really say much right now, but there might be some movement on the Medical Arts Building soon. Apparently, there is a group of investors that are talking to someone from Canada about opening a Boutique Hotel in the building. We've been approached about doing it, but I don't know if that will happen. A big renovation like that is not our strength. - - - There is another in town project that was debated heavily the other day that we are also in the running for. That is more promising, but I won't mention it until I know more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martinman 86 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) New Coke museum pauses, refreshes - AJC Webcam The company recently released details of the new building, estimated to cost $97 million. The new museum will lose the cube shape of its predecessor which opened in 1990, and will double the size of the current building. The new World of Coca-Cola will feature contemporary glass-and-stainless steel architectural design on one side, dominated by a 27-foot "frosted" replica of its famous contoured bottle encased in a 90-foot glass cylinder. The other side will be traditional, so much so that it looks as if it could be part of another building. A glass window will display a smaller version of the another building. A glass window will display a smaller version of the lighted, trademarked Coca-Cola swoosh featured in the current building.
