Dominium Delivers Two Atlanta Affordable Housing Projects

The City of Atlanta and Dominium have opened two residential communities reserved for low-income tenants. The two projects will house over 1,000 seniors and families and are expected to cost $140 million to build.

Briar Park (photo) and The Paramount are developments less than half a mile apart along Greenbriar Parkway. Both complexes are also within walking distance of Greenbriar Mall.

Briar Park features 244 units with one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans reserved for active seniors ages 55 and older. The Paramount consists of 240 residential units featuring one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans, available to renters with no age restrictions.

Renters have to earn less than 60% of the area median income, which is $64,500 annually for a family of four. Residents of Briar Park and The Paramount must also earn at least 2 or 2.5 times their monthly rent, respectively, to be considered for occupancy.

Resident move-ins are scheduled to begin Aug. 1.
