Summary, model-written
Georgia-Pacific Center (1.3M sq ft office park, opened 1982) is approved for redevelopment starting 2027. The project includes high-rise apartments, offices, hotel, retail, and entertainment. A Special Administrative Permit was approved in 2024, with construction beginning that year and delivery planned for 2027. The developer is Georgia-Pacific’s development team.
Why. The site is large (1.3M sq ft), located in a growing Fulton County (4.6% population growth 2018–23), and aligns with local housing demand (median rent $1,635). Nearby projects include 11 developments within 10km, mostly under construction or proposed.
Where it stands. Approved and under construction (2024 groundbreak). Zoning change approved by Atlanta’s Office of Zoning and Development. No specific tenant or cost details provided. Traffic data shows Central Ave SW as a minor arterial (4 lanes, 9,870 ADT).
