Hundreds of new housing units have taken shape in recent years near Central Perimeter MARTA transit in projects such as High Street, and that trend is continuing now.
A partial office park redevelopment called Solis Embassy Row is under construction in Sandy Springs near both a MARTA transit station and Ga. Highway 400.
According to project contractor Fortune-Johnson, Solis Embassy Row broke ground last month on a 6-acre site next to Embassy Row’s office mid-rises. The 6660 Peachtree Dunwoody Road site is roughly a block northwest of MARTA’s Sandy Springs station.

The mixed-use project will bring 341 market-rate apartments to Sandy Springs across two separate buildings.
One unique aspect is that an existing parking deck will be retained and enhanced for use by residential tenants, according to Fortune-Johnson officials.
Amenities such as a rooftop lounge, forested courtyards, and a pool are in the works, in addition to retail spaces. (Renderings show a corner coffee shop at the base of one building.)

Terwilliger Pappas is developing the Cooper Carry-designed project.
Elsewhere around Atlanta, the Charlotte-based developer has recently built the Parkside on Dresden project in Brookhaven and is currently underway with a seven-building venture called Solis Hapeville near the airport.

In a new ranking of the 100 most populated U.S. metro areas as tourist destinations, Atlanta has emerged as (almost) the hottest place to be this summer.
Metro Atlanta scored the No. 2 ranking on WalletHub’s recently released list of 2025’s Best Summer Travel Destinations, bested only by Orlando.
With the official start of summer approaching next month, WalletHub, a personal finance website that examines city trends, scored the 100 metros on 41 key indicators related to sheer fun, budget-friendliness (think: cheapest flights and average cost of a two-person meal), and other factors.
The six main categories for judging were: travel costs and hassles; local costs; attractions; weather; activities; and safety.
Metro Atlanta’s strong showing (other cities such as Decatur, Sandy Springs, and Alpharetta were included) has a lot to do with the World’s Busiest Airport, “in part because the shortest flights from major cities don’t require any connections and can cost as little as $219,” according to the study.
Also working in Atlanta’s favor is the metro’s diversity of summer-centric attractions. We also scored high marks for prevalence of amusement parks, shopping centers, ice cream shops, and swimming pools—places to generally cool off without breaking the bank. Atlanta’s relatively late “last call” for thirsty tourist also earned a nod.
Beyond Orlando and Atlanta, WalletHub’s top five tourist-destination cities for 2025 are Washington D.C., Honolulu, and Austin, respectively.
Here’s how Atlanta stacked up across all metrics, according to WalletHub’s rundown:
- 2nd – Travel costs a hassles
- 19th – Number of attractions
- 2nd – Diversity of attractions
- 2nd – Cost of cheapest flight
- 59th – Duration of cheapest flight
- 35th – Cost of three-star hotel
- 15th – Weather
- 8th – Activities
- 35th – Safety

Atlanta’s 20 largest general contractors
Atlanta’s 20 largest general contractors
The 20 largest general contractors in Atlanta reported more than $21.8 billion in 2024 Georgia contract revenue. The online version of this ranking expands beyond what appears in print; another 27 general contractors are included in our digital rankings, in addition to the 20 featured in this week’s print edition. This week’s List is part of a shift in our research methodology and philosophy in 2025, one that will emphasize more data and context for readers while better coordinating the resources available to us and our 46 sister publications under the American City Business Journals flag. We anticipate this effort will identify thousands of new local records — and cumulatively, tens of thousands of new businesses across ACBJ’s footprint. Information on The List was supplied by individual firms through questionnaires. Additionally, companies that did not respond to surveys but were still included on this year’s List are sorted by estimated total employment figures derived from annual filings with the U.S. Department of Labor.
