Anyone who’s recently traveled the Stone Mountain Trail between Decatur and Clarkston may have noticed fresh crops of homes and multifamily dwellings—without realizing they’re in an under-the-radar but growing, census-designated, ITP place.
Just north of new trailside townhomes in Avondale Estates, the DeKalb County community of Scottdale has seen numerous infill single-family projects take shape in recent years, many of them within walking distance of the PATH Foundation multi-use pathway.
Another new townhome project called Mills on Proctor is now in the works a few steps east of the Stone Mountain Trail, which is undergoing master-planning studies as a means of triggering more growth.

Mills on Proctor is a project by Pritchett Development, a firm that’s considered the primary developer and landowner in Scottdale and has help catalyze recent population growth, according to owner Elgin Pritchett.
Pritchett said plans for the townhome venture have been expanded from nine to 12 units now that additional parcels have been acquired next door.
Mills on Proctor will take shape where Robinson and Proctor avenues meet. The location, a few blocks east of Your DeKalb Farmers Market, is about a mile and ½ from downtown Avondale Estates, and two and ½ miles from downtown Decatur.
According to Pritchett, the townhomes will have three bedrooms and three full bathrooms (some with a fourth bedroom or flex space) in about 2,400 square feet. Prices will range between the low and mid-$500,000s, he said.
Townhomes of comparable sizes currently on the market in nearby Decatur are priced in the high $600,000s and up, according to listing services.
Alongside single-family homes both finished, under construction, or in permitting, Pritchett’s company completed a similar seven-unit townhome concept three years ago called The Mills at Scottdale. Two units remain unsold there.

The broader community, in Pritchett’s view, remains a good investment but relatively unsung.
A recent Home Stratosphere analysis pegged Scottdale as one the fastest-appreciating markets in Georgia (No. 16 of 25 spotlighted), based on Zillow Home Value Index data. Back in 2018, Realtor.com ranked Scottdale the country’s fourth fastest-growing “suburb.”

Groundbreaking for ‘milestone’ SW ATL project on tap, developers forecast
Groundbreaking for ‘milestone’ SW ATL project on tap, developers forecast
Groundbreaking for ‘milestone’ SW ATL project on tap, developers forecast

Developers have closed on land in Southwest Atlanta that sets the stage for a potentially transformative mix of affordable housing, commercial space, and jobs, continuing a groundswell of investment and ambitious redevelopment plans in the area, officials announced today.
Woodfield Development plans to break ground in coming weeks on a mixed-use project called 840 Woodrow set to take shape on about 7 acres in Oakland City, a block west of the Beltline’s Westside Trail and adjacent to the historic Murphy Crossing property.
Woodfield has now closed on the required acreage and expects 840 Woodrow to cost just shy of $77 million. Development plans have been percolating—in partnership with Atlanta-based multifamily developers Vida Companies—for more than three years. The vacant site was most recently used for car and truck storage.
In an announcement today, Woodfield officials predicted 840 Woodrow will be a “milestone” and “transformative” addition to historic neighborhoods in Southwest Atlanta.
Woodfield plans to break ground in Oakland City within 30 to 40 days, with construction following shortly after that.
The land closing marks “a significant step forward in bringing thoughtful, inclusive development to the Westside,” said Patrick Kassin, Woodfield’s vice president and regional development partner, in a statement. “We’re proud to partner on a project that expands housing access, supports local businesses, and reflects the creativity and culture of this community.”

Plans call for 326 new apartments and rental townhomes overall, with 20 percent of them (66 units) designated as affordable/workforce housing—an amount that exceeds the City of Atlanta’s Inclusionary Zoning requirements, Woodfield officials noted. Rent limits will be based on 80 percent of the Area Median Income, and 5 percent of units will also be set aside for tenants using vouchers.
Another aspect of the project will see subsidized commercial spaces for local entrepreneurs.
That will include the adaptive-reuse of an existing building on site into a headquarters and training facility for a local coffee roaster who’s committed to local hiring, along with repurposed shipping containers that will serve as storefronts in hopes of supporting area startups and local entrepreneurs. Public-art programming and “significant sidewalk and streetscape upgrades” are also in the pipeline, officials have said.
Plans call for a Beltline spur trail to run along the southern edge of the property, linking the Westside Trail to other major infill sites in the vicinity.
840 Woodrow is expected to produce more than 500 construction jobs and 40-plus permanent jobs. An estimated $1.5 million in brownfield remediation work will be required to ready the site for redevelopment, per Develop Fulton, whose board of directors in April approved a bond resolution that green-lighted the project.
Woodfield is also partnering on 840 Woodrow with American South Capital Partners, a veteran of 25 projects across the Southeast region with the bulk of housing units considered affordable for families earning less than 80 percent AMI.
Woodfield’s intown Atlanta developments in recent years include the 505 Courtland tower, while the firm’s OTP projects have popped up in places such as Union City and Athens. The company bills itself as one of the country’s leading developers of Class A multifamily housing.
As for 840 Woodrow’s delivery, Kassin previously told Urbanize Atlanta the first residential units (townhomes) will start delivering roughly 12 months after construction starts, while the full project will take 22 to 24 months to complete.

The Oakland City project joins an influx of proposals that could bring thousands of new homes and considerable new commercial activity to surrounding blocks.
Just down the street in Capitol View, plans that call for a 25-acre, potentially billion-dollar new district with more than 4,000 housing units overall came to light two months ago. An Empire Communities townhome component of that project is under development now.
Also nearby, the first phase of adaptive-reuse Oakland Exchange is now gearing up to break ground this year, following years of delays, according to Invest Atlanta.
Planning efforts also continue at the area’s best-known redevelopment site—one that overlooks the mainline Beltline loop trail—following well-documented turbulence.
Earlier this year, Atlanta Beltline Inc. parted ways with selected developers Culdesac and Urban Oasis Development for the vacant, 20-acre Murphy Crossing property. Beltline leadership has taken the reins on planning and development and expects to break ground on the initial phase at Murphy Crossing sometime in 2026.
But the 840 Woodrow venture now appears set to beat others to the punch. Swing up to the gallery for more imagery and context.

Crane Watch: Bird’s-eye view of Atlanta’s tallest new tower since 1992

Throughout the spring, our diligent/obsessive tracking of Atlanta’s tallest new building since the early 1990s has focused on viewpoints from the east, north, and west. Now it’s time to head up—way up.
A recent drone tour vividly shows how Rockefeller Group’s 60-story 1072 West Peachtree project is beginning to put amenity levels in place, fastening blue glass panels to its climbing concrete skeleton (with inset balconies), and generally dwarfing newer, nearby high-rises that once stood prominently on Midtown’s skyline.
Alternately, from street level, any Midtown dweller can see the Rockefeller project’s height has surpassed the nearby “Google building,” the tallest, 31-story office component of Selig Development’s three-tower 1105 West Peachtree project.
At the time of this drone tour two weeks ago (forgive the delay; a vacation and photographer wedding interfered), construction crews were working on the 20th story over the tower’s wider base. That means the project had about 20 stories left to climb, not including rooftop infrastructure and glass-panel ornamentation.
The New York City-based development firm relayed in April that 1072 West Peachtree had finished its base office and retail floors, en route to becoming both the tallest residential and mixed-use building in Atlanta, and the fifth tallest in the city overall.
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.

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.
Rockefeller officials have said the tower will count more than 350 high-end apartments for Midtown total.
Below the residential uses, 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.

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.
The construction schedule now calls for topping out 1072 West Peachtree later this year. It 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.

Crane Watch: Bird’s-eye view of Atlanta’s tallest new tower since 1992

Tue, 06/17/2025 – 09:54
Throughout the spring, our diligent/obsessive tracking of Atlanta’s tallest new building since the early 1990s has focused on viewpoints from the east, north, and west. Now it’s time to head up—way up. A recent drone tour vividly shows how Rockefeller Group’s 60-story 1072 West Peachtree project is beginning to put amenity levels in place, fastening blue glass panels to its climbing concrete skeleton (with inset balconies), and generally dwarfing newer, nearby high-rises that once stood prominently on Midtown’s skyline. Alternately, from street level, any Midtown dweller can see the Rockefeller project’s height has surpassed the nearby “Google building,” the tallest, 31-story office component of Selig Development’s three-tower 1105 West Peachtree project.

At the time of this drone tour two weeks ago (forgive the delay; a vacation and photographer wedding interfered), construction crews were working on the 20th story over the tower’s wider base. That means the project had about 20 stories left to climb, not including rooftop infrastructure and glass-panel ornamentation.The New York City-based development firm relayed in April that 1072 West Peachtree had finished its base office and retail floors, en route to becoming both the tallest residential and mixed-use building in Atlanta, and the fifth tallest in the city overall.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.
