A multiphase infill project that could provide relatively attainable options for homeownership in the shadow of downtown is aiming to start coming together this year, according to project officials.

Plans remain a work-in-progress, but the Signature at Pryor project in Mechanicsville calls for building duplexes and standalone townhomes on several parcels in the 500 block of Pryor Street SW.

Those sites—situated on Pryor Street between Richardson and Crumley streets—are about four blocks south of Interstate 20, due west of Summerhill’s ongoing redevelopment.

The project by an LLC called Lynch Land Holdings has been in planning stages for more than three years.

Adam Morrison, a Realtor with Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty’s intown office, tells Urbanize Atlanta that construction on the two-phase venture could begin as soon as March, once remaining plans are finalized.

Tentative plans call for delivering the first phase of housing—between 10 and 14 units—in roughly the third quarter of 2025, according to Morrison.

Pricing hasn’t been finalized because floorplans are still being revised, per Morrison. (Renderings included with this story reflect earlier plans but lend an idea of scale.) Three interior packages will be offered, per marketing materials.

“We hope to offer a premium, spacious product with sustainable features, garages, patios, and signature finishes in a storied but still-overlooked neighborhood of Atlanta—Mechanicsville,” Morrison wrote via email.

“Initial pricing will allow buyers to invest in themselves and in Mechanicsville’s growth,” he continued, “with larger homes with higher-end finishes that would cost more elsewhere.”

Signature at Pryor would join a handful of Mechanicsville infill multifamily ventures to pop up in recent years.

Others include the MetroVille duplexes, the 11 townhomes in Vertical Row, and more recently the Point 5 project, where prices for 17 townhomes started in the low $500,000s.
