Jamestown Adds to Ponce City Market Project

Jamestown has delivered 619 Ponce, a 115,000-square-foot Class A office building in Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward.

The development is part of the second phase of the Ponce City Market adaptive reuse project at 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, which opened in 2015. Much of the project was built on the site of what was once a Sears location that was bought in 2011 for $27 million. Additional plans for the project’s second phase include Scout Living and Signal House, both multifamily projects.

The four-story 619 Ponce is Atlanta’s first office building to be made entirely of locally sourced mass timber, all lumbered from Jamestown-owned forests located around Columbus, Ga. Construction was done on-site by JE Dunn and StructureCraft. Designed by Handel Architects, 619 Ponce includes outdoor space, a rooftop courtyard, with spaces featuring floor-to-ceiling windows with moveable panels.
