  • Blueprint Midtown 3. ACTION PLAN Introduction
    Blueprint Midtown 3. ACTION PLAN Introduction This document identifies Midtown’s goals, implementation strategies and specific action items that will ensure a rich diversity of land uses, vibrant street-level activity, quality building design, multimodal transportation accessibility and mobility, and engaging public spaces. Blueprint Midtown 3.0 is the most recent evolution of Midtown Alliance’s community driven plan that builds on Midtown’s fundamental strengths and makes strategic improvements to move the District from great to exceptional. It identifies both high priority projects that will be advanced in the next 10 years, as well as longer-term projects and initiatives that may take decades to achieve but require exploration now. Since 1997, policies laid out in Blueprint Midtown have guided public and private investment to create a clean, safe, and vibrant urban environment. The original plan established a community vision for Midtown that largely remains the same: a livable, walkable district in the heart of Atlanta; a place where people, business and culture converge to create a live-work-play community with a distinctive personality and a premium quality of life. Blueprint Midtown 3.0 builds on recent successes, incorporates previously completed studies and corridor plans, draws inspiration from other places and refines site-specific recommendations to reflect the changes that have occurred in the community since the original unveiling of Blueprint Midtown. Extensive community input conducted in 2016 involving more than 6,000 Midtown employers, property owners, residents, workers, visitors, public-sector partners, and subject-matter experts validates the Blueprint Midtown vision for an authentic urban experience. The Action Plan lives with a family of Blueprint Midtown 3.0 documents which also includes: Overview: Moving Forward with Blueprint Midtown 3.0, Midtown Character Areas Concept Plans (coming soon), Appendices: Project Plans and 5-Year Work Plan (coming soon).

  • Hines Plans 2018 Start on 'Spec' Atlantic Station Project
    ATLANTA BUSINESS CHRONICLE DECEMBER 15, 2017 Hines plans 2018 start on ‘spec’ Atlantic Station project BY DOUGLAS SAMS Commercial Real Estate Editor, Atlanta Business Chronicle Developer Hines has tweaked the design of a proposed $80 million Atlantic Station office building to echo the -in dustrial roots of the former Midtown steel plant. With partners Invesco Real Estate and the nation’s sec- ond-largest public pension fund, California State Teach- ersRetirement System (CALSTRS), Hines plans to break ground on the 230,000-square-foot building in second- quarter 2018. Hines would start construction on the project called T3 without office tenants signed to leases — also known as “going spec.” “There is no reason to wait,” said John Heagy, a Hines senior managing director and leader of the project in At- lanta. Hines wants the building delivered no later than the second quarter of 2019. “There is strong pent-up demand in the Midtown mar- ket. And, we need that ability to align the project with the tenants’ schedules,” Heagy said. T3 has already generated at least 700,000 square feet of inquiries from potential tenants, Heagy added. The building would rise on a small site along 17th Street, the highest point at Atlantic Station. It features views of Midtown and downtown. The site is also next to The Foundry Park, which Hines calls a key amenity for the building’s future tenants. The original design of T3, first unveiled to the Atlanta market in 2015, was altered. “It just felt too heavy,” Heagy said. For example, the former brick exterior is now steel, a nod to old Atlantic Steel Co.
