New marketing materials for Centennial Yards paint a clearer picture of what’s being called a “generational transformation” for the former dead zone that was downtown Atlanta’s Gulch.
The fresh renderings come as part of a Centennial Yards Company leasing package that illustrates how the megaproject’s two standing towers will relate to an under-construction sports and entertainment district and smaller structures both long-planned and conceptual.
Centennial Yards reps confirm to Urbanize Atlanta the images are accurate and updated. Two proposed buildings of note shown within them include a boutique hotel along Elliott Street near Castleberry Hill and an infill, mid-rise apartment stack along Mitchell Street.
Despite recent permitting activity for the Elliott Street project, Centennial Yards reps say both buildings remain in planning phases with no construction timelines set.

The new visuals continue a busy month for the 50-acre downtown venture, which is expected to bring more than 2,000 residential units (at least 200 of them deemed affordable), more than 2,000 hotel rooms, and roughly one million square feet of retail across a decade of development.
Last week, Centennial Yards Company officials announced they’ve signed a long-term lease with entertainment giant Live Nation to bring live music and events to the under-construction entertainment and sports section, situated across the street from both State Farm Arena and Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
That venue is expected to have a 5,300-person capacity, larger than the Fox Theatre’s seating capacity (4,665 seats) and nearby Tabernacle’s (2,600). It’s slated to open sometime in 2027.

The music venue will also neighbor the third Cosm venue in the U.S., a three-story immersive entertainment concept that started going vertical this month.
Centennial Yards’ first two towers—the 292-key Hotel Phoenix and a 304-apartment building The Mitchell, both 19 stories—are nearing the final phases of construction. The apartments are on pace to debut this summer, followed by the district’s first hotel sometime this fall.

Centennial Yards facets that have already opened include adaptive-reuse projects Centennial Yards South and Wild Leap Brewery. The connected, pedestrians-only Steele Bridge now hosts tailgating parties before large events with live music, food offerings, and other activities for fans and families.
Centennial Yards Company—a partnership between an affiliate of CIM Group and another group led by Atlanta Hawks owner Tony Ressler—is serving as the project’s master developer.
All told, Centennial Yards is expected to cost $5 billion and span some 8 million square feet of mixed uses, described by its financial backers as one of the largest public-private partnerships in the U.S. right now. It’s all backed by a nearly $2-billion tax-incentive package, a record for Atlanta.

Situated along a popular connector route between Midtown and Buckhead, a Morningside development that erected a large batch of townhomes in place of 1950s apartments has wrapped construction that spanned nearly half a decade.
One home remains unsold at national developer Toll Brothers’ Beckham Place at Morningside, a community of long townhome rows along a curving section of Piedmont Road, a few blocks north of Piedmont Park near Fat Matt’s Rib Shack.
Development of Beckham Place began during the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic with demolition of the 11-building Oak Knoll Apartment Homes, which had been built in 1951.
Over subsequent years, Beckham Place delivered 60 townhomes total in the 1700 block of Piedmont Road.

Eric White, Toll Brothers division president in Georgia, tells Urbanize Atlanta the last unsold townhome is move-in ready. That floorplan, the Winn Contemporary, includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms in just over 2,000 square feet, plus a two-car garage. The asking price is now $648,995.
“The home is in a prime location close to the incredible community clubhouse,” noted White via email.
Beckham Place is considered a gated community, with amenities that include an onsite pool and greenspace. All townhomes stand four stories with garages and roof terraces, but none include elevators.
The development team has called the location strategic for its access to Atlanta’s marquee greenspace, nearby shops and restaurants, and Morningside’s top-flight schools.

Pennsylvania-based Toll Brothers, billed as the nation’s top builder of luxury homes, acquired longtime Atlanta homebuilder Thrive Residential in early 2020.
The deal included nearly 700 infill lots that Thrive had accumulated throughout Atlanta and Nashville, including the Morningside parcel that became Beckham Place.

With summer quickly approaching, Atlanta’s largest new hotel in 40 years has opened its elevated pool with public access this season. Just don’t expect public pool prices.
For the first time, the Signia by Hilton Atlanta hotel is offering a “summer retreat experience” called ResortPass that aims to lure in locals for pampered staycations, if only for a few hours, officials announced this week.
Signia’s day-pass program allows for access to the property’s Spa Signia and Club Signia with a variety of different ResortPass packages, offering services such as custom massages and HydraFacials.
Those treatments start at $220 and include up to three hours of access to Signia’s new saltwater pool and open-air bar Highball, which overlook Mercedes-Benz Stadium and downtown.

Also included is free valet parking and access to the hotel’s 23,000-square-foot wellness floor, the Recovery Lounge. Features there include a sauna, zero-gravity chairs, heated infrared PEMF mats, Normatec leg compression, and what’s described as “calming soundscapes and curated aromatherapy,” per hotel reps.
The 42-story Signia rose from part of the Georgia Dome’s former site and began opening in January last year as the city’s largest ground-up hotel development in more than four decades. That followed nearly three years of pandemic-delayed construction and several years of planning.
The 976-room tower at 159 Northside Drive marks the first Georgia hotel for the Signia by Hilton brand and the tallest building on downtown’s western flank. (Fun fact: Everything above level 32 at the hotel is taller than The Benz next door.)

Beyond the pool area, highlights include eight food and beverage concepts, including signature Italian fine-dining restaurant Capolinea and daytime eatery Homespun. More than 100,000 square feet of meeting space, boardrooms with views, Georgia’s largest ballroom, and what’s described as a “grand outdoor event deck and lawn” are also dotted around the 1.25-million-square-foot property.
The Signia’s room count ranks it between the fifth largest hotel in Atlanta (Omni Atlanta Hotel: 1,038 rooms) and the current sixth (Sheraton Atlanta Hotel: 749 rooms). It also marks Atlanta’s fifth tallest all-hotel tower overall. That category is led by the 73-story Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel, a John Portman-designed building completed in 1976 that’s still Atlanta’s fifth-tallest building—for now.
Owned by the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, Signia is part of what GWCCA calls its Championship Campus, which along with The Benz and Centennial Olympic Park forms “North America’s largest combined convention, sports, and entertainment destination,” according to GWCCA.

With summer quickly approaching, Atlanta’s largest new hotel in 40 years has opened its elevated pool with public access this season. Just don’t expect public pool prices. For the first time, the Signia by Hilton Atlanta hotel is offering a “summer retreat experience” called ResortPass that aims to lure in locals for pampered staycations, if only for a few hours, officials announced this week. Signia’s day-pass program allows for access to the property’s Spa Signia and Club Signia with a variety of different ResortPass packages, offering services such as custom massages and HydraFacials. Those treatments start at $220 and include up to three hours of access to Signia’s new saltwater pool and open-air bar Highball, which overlook Mercedes-Benz Stadium and downtown.

Also included is free valet parking and access to the hotel’s 23,000-square-foot wellness floor, the Recovery Lounge. Features there include a sauna, zero-gravity chairs, heated infrared PEMF mats, Normatec leg compression, and what’s described as “calming soundscapes and curated aromatherapy,” per hotel reps. The 42-story Signia rose from part of the Georgia Dome’s former site and began opening in January last year as the city’s largest ground-up hotel development in more than four decades. That followed nearly three years of pandemic-delayed construction and several years of planning.The 976-room tower at 159 Northside Drive marks the first Georgia hotel for the Signia by Hilton brand and the tallest building on downtown’s western flank. (Fun fact: Everything above level 32 at the hotel is taller than The Benz next door.)
