Atlanta’s Tallest New Building Plans Updated
Rockefeller Group’s plans for the 60-story 1072 West Peachtree are evolving as the building is built. Rockefeller says the tower will rise more than 730 feet, making it Atlanta’s tallest residential building and its fifth tallest high-rise.
Urbanize Atlanta reports one key component will be Midtown’s largest outdoor amenity deck, designed for expansive views of the city. The feature will be called the Sky Garden. Current plans call for 6,300 square feet of retail on the street and 224,000 square feet of Class A office space above that. Topping the building will be more than 350 apartments alongside amenities described by Rockefeller as world-class.
The company has pulled back on building its full allotment of parking spots and is instead preparing a two-story space where cyclists can lock away bikes and take a shower, in addition to a fitness center .
No timeline for 1072 West Peachtree’s completion has been specified, but the site has seen heavy demolition and infrastructure work ongoing for nearly a year and ½ at this point.
