Pennrose, Mercy Care Create Health-Centered Rental Community

Pennrose and Mercy Care have worked out a plan where a portion of 170-units recently completed apartments will be set aside for transitional/respite units for nearby Mercy Care patients in Atlanta. In addition, all residents of McAuley Station will have direct access to Mercy Care medical center, which is adjacent to the apartments. The hospital group recently completed a 36,000 square foot expansion of the care center.

Phase I includes studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments for local families. The community is designed to serve a range of incomes, with a mix of workforce, affordable, and supportive housing units available at 30% to 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI). Besides the transitional units, 30 studios will serve as permanent supportive housing through Fulton County’s Behavioral Health Department in partnership with Partners for HOME. 

Residents will also have access to on-site community amenities, including a rooftop deck with scenic views of downtown Atlanta, bocce court, and grill station; inviting resident lounge and fitness center.
