Perhaps you’ve seen it peeking up lately from Northside Drive. Or Howell Mill Road. Or the lower reaches of Buckhead.
As legions of ATL development wonks have recently noticed, the city’s tallest skyscraper project in more than 30 years has started to make a definitive mark over the Connector freeway and several neighborhoods to the west and north.
And in terms of vertical stacking, it’s just getting started.
New York City developers Rockefeller Group relayed in April the 60-story 1072 West Peachtree project—set to become both the tallest residential and mixed-use building in Atlanta, and the fifth tallest in the city overall—had finished its base office and retail floors.
As of Saturday, construction crews were working on the 18th story over the tower’s wider base, per our calculations. That means the project has about 22 stories left to climb, not including rooftop infrastructure and glass-panel ornamentation.

As another unofficial milestone, the tower’s height has now surpassed the nearby “Google building,” the tallest, 31-story office component of Selig Development’s tri-tower 1105 West Peachtree project.
Judging by construction progress since our last Crane Watch update in early May, the 1072 West Peachtree project is rising at a clip of about one floor per week as summer approaches.
Rockefeller officials have said the tower will include more than 350 high-end apartments for Midtown. The construction schedule now calls for topping out 1072 West Peachtree later this year.
Described as a “trophy tower” designed by Atlanta-based architecture firm TVS, in collaboration with Brock Hudgins Architects, the project will include boutique, five-star Class A offices and the highest apartment views in Atlanta to date. The 224,000 square feet of office space will occupy floors 11 to 18, with perks that include 10-foot finished ceiling heights, city views on all floors, and flexible layouts, plus a large terrace on each floor. Rockefeller officials have called fitness and spa options for office tenants “unparalleled” for the market. CBRE has been hired to lead office leasing.

Roughly 22 stories to go from this point before 1072 West Peachtree tops out. Josh Green/Urbanize Atlanta
Spanning a full acre, the tower’s 10th-floor amenity deck will include collaborative and lounge seating areas and a lawn for games, events, and other gatherings. Also on the 10th floor will be a 30,000-square-foot indoor amenity zone with lounges, meeting spaces, a yoga studio, and other features.
Rockefeller’s plans for the retail component include multiple options for dining throughout the day. Those spaces will see coffee, casual grab-and-go, and sit-down restaurant additions to the block, per developers.
Rockefeller is now forecasting the full building will be finished in spring 2026, in time for global interest in Atlanta during eight FIFA World Cup matches beginning in June.
The 1072 West Peachtree project will ultimately stand 749 feet, making it Atlanta’s fifth tallest high-rise and supplanting Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel for the No. 5 spot. No taller skyrise has been built in Atlanta since 1992.

Skinny infill pitched for increasingly rare lot in Reynoldstown Beltline zone

The popularity of Beltline lifestyles means that, in some cases, designers are being forced to get crafty with available land, however small it may be. And this case certainly qualifies.
Plans have come to market in recent days for a Reynoldstown infill project that would rise from what could be mistaken for a side yard at 73 Kenyon St. The site is less than a block west of the Beltline corridor and Breaker Breaker restaurant, just south of Wylie Street.
Dubbed “The Narrow House” by its architect, Carlos E. Ostrej Design, the concept calls for four stories of living space (counting the rooftop terrace) on a lot that’s between 25 ½ and 28 ½ feet wide. The top levels would overlook the Beltline’s Eastside Trail—er, sorry, Southeast Trail—to the east.

The setting is “an atypically narrow lot,” but multiple terraces and the roof help atone “for otherwise insufficient exterior spaces on the ground,” per the designer.
Platinum Real Estate, which has listed the lot and building plans for $194,900, calls the concept “the house of your dreams” for “one of the few remaining lots in the area.”
Included with the sale are complete drawings (with civil and structural engineering for The Narrow House concept), the survey, and a setback variance, according to Platinum Real Estate.

Good news (and not-so-good news) piles up for PATH400 project
Good news (and not-so-good news) piles up for PATH400 project
Good news (and not-so-good news) piles up for PATH400 project
Josh Green
Fri, 05/30/2025 – 14:43
If metro Atlanta is ever going to boast a truly regional multi-use trail network for recreation and commute alternatives, Buckhead’s PATH400 will be an integral part of it—the spine, if you will.
But a crucial nerve ending—to continue the anatomical metaphor—is now in jeopardy.
The threat of yanked federal funding that was earmarked to build a key link between PATH400, the Atlanta Beltline, and other ITP trail systems is one facet of what’s been a busy month for PATH400 happenings.
Let’s start with the bad news.
Quick recap: Atlanta Beltline Inc. received a $25 million federal grant in summer 2023—the largest in project history—to help build connections between the Beltline’s Northeast Trail, PATH400, and two other trail networks in the Lindbergh area, the Peachtree Creek Greenway and Southfork Conservancy trails. Planning work kicked off shortly thereafter.
The goal was to build, at the southernmost end of PATH400, a 2.2-mile junction of trails that would go a long way toward creating a true regional network. In theory, it would eventually make commuting by bike or electric-powered scooter from, say, Sandy Springs or Doraville to Beltline-connected points across intown Atlanta—and vice versa—possible.

But as Axios Atlanta recently reported, that $25-million federal boost could be at risk of being taken back soon by the current administration. Beltline president and CEO Clyde Higgs told Fulton County commissioners earlier this month his agency might have to pivot toward asking for other funding source if the major federal grant falls apart.
Commissioners told Higgs they would lobby federal officials to not kill funding for the Beltline connection (and separate monies that’d been earmarked for installing WiFi along the full 22-mile loop) during a planned Washington D.C. trip soon, according to Axios.
In more positive news, PATH400 project leaders Livable Buckhead report that only “final touches” remain before the next northward trail piece is finished and open.
That one-mile segment, stretching between Wieuca Road up to Loridans Drive, includes the soaring Mountain Way Common bridge. That structure stands nearly 60 feet over the Mountain Way Common greenspace, between Ga. Highway 400 and towering trees.
Beyond that, heading north, the final PATH400 segment between Loridans Drive and the city limits of Atlanta/Sandy Springs is now under construction, with tree-clearing work completed, as Livable Buckhead relays.
Even north of that, a 2.3-mile extension that would bring the Sandy Springs pathway up to the Interstate 285 and Ga. Highway 400 interchange is now fully funded with an $18 million grant from Atlanta Regional Commission, according to Rough Draft Atlanta.
Lastly on the good news front, PATH400’s new outdoor gym zone, The Old Ivy Fitness Tunnel, is now officially open for pumping body-weight iron. A $40,000 grant from Park Pride foot the bill.

Good news (and not-so-good news) piles up for PATH400 project

If metro Atlanta is ever going to boast a truly regional multi-use trail network for recreation and commute alternatives, Buckhead’s PATH400 will be an integral part of it—the spine, if you will. But a crucial nerve ending—to continue the anatomical metaphor—is now in jeopardy. The threat of yanked federal funding that was earmarked to build a key link between PATH400, the Atlanta Beltline, and other ITP trail systems is one facet of what’s been a busy month for PATH400 happenings. Let’s start with the bad news.
