For football weekends or Athens explorations in general, boutique accommodations in the Classic City just got a little cooler.
Following a two-year renovation, a commercial building at 183 West Clayton St. has been reborn as The Bell Hotel, an elegantly hip property being marketed as a “historic jewel” and celebration of art, architecture, and “timeless sophistication” in the heart of downtown. The project’s grand opening was held Tuesday.
The three-story building, situated about a block from University of Georgia’s campus, was constructed in 1916 to house advanced telephone equipment for the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Co. (thus, the hotel name). The telephone company departed in 1966, and an era of private commercial use stretched across ensuing decades.
Atlanta-based developer Brad Foster, philanthropist Marie Brumley Foster, and their sons began work on the 108-year-old property in 2022. Working with preservationists, the restoration efforts discovered original design plans for the building by architect P. Thornton Marye, noted for his Moorish-style blueprints for Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, which opened 13 years after the Athens building.

Athens-based architectural firm Arcollab aimed to carefully restore the property while also transforming it, bringing the yellow-brick façade and terra-cotta detailing “to its former glory, reflecting the craftsmanship and grandeur of its era,” per project officials.
As boutique hotels go, this one’s very boutique, with just eight guest rooms (each with unique designs), plus a four-bedroom suite. One key addition was a rooftop terrace with panoramic downtown Athens views; that was possible because the century-old building’s reinforced concrete, post-and-beam structure remained robust, per officials.
Other design highlights include a parlor-style lobby, a centerpiece grand staircase, and what’s described as statement lighting, chic furnishings, and a bevy of curated art, as selected by interior design firms Simplicity: A Southern Lifestyle and Seiber Design.
Each of The Bell’s bathrooms feature “state-of-the-art fixtures and custom high-contrast tilework that elevate the guest experience,” per officials. Photography by Jason Thrasher; courtesy of The Bell Hotel

King rooms with a single bed this month start around $250 per night, with one onsite parking space included.
“Our family envisioned restoring [the building’s] architectural beauty while reintroducing its rich story to the community,” noted Brad Foster in a grand-opening announcement, “creating a space where history and modern hospitality come together.”

Battery Maker Backs Out on $2.6B Atlanta-Area Factory
Battery Maker Backs Out on $2.6B Atlanta-Area Factory
A battery manufacturer has withdrawn plans for a $2.6 billion factory on 360 acres in Coweta County and must now repay money granted to it by local and state governments.
The Atlanta Business Chronicle reports Freyr Battery entered into an agreement to sell its 368-acre site south of Newnan to an undisclosed buyer for $50 million. The property is at Interstate 85 and Bethlehem Church Road, south of the Newnan-Coweta County Airport. Freyr purchased the property in late 2022 for $42.2 million.
Freyr had announced its Georgia project in 2022, promising over 700 jobs. It received a hefty incentive package and made Newnan its home base. Freyr has changed its business focus, moving into renewable energy.
In recent months, Coweta County has been the target of data center developers and homebuilders. A $17 billion data center proposal emerged in January, and a nearly 700-home project was pitched in November.

Atlanta Ups Scrutiny of Data Centers
Atlanta Ups Scrutiny of Data Centers
Last year, the Atlanta City Council banned new data centers within a half-mile of the Beltline and within a half-mile of MARTA stations, hoping to prevent data centers from gobbling up prime real estate that could otherwise be filled with affordable housing, green space or other quality-of-life investments.
Atlanta officials are now pursuing additional restrictions on data centers.
The Atlanta Business Chronicle reports anyone applying for a permit would be required to submit information about their project’s impact on natural resources and the environment, including a water consumption plan, water conservation and sustainability plan, energy consumption plan, transmission line impact assessment, tree preservation and reforestation plan, and a stormwater management plan.
Data centers are viewed as essential infrastructure for cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other digital capabilities. However, they tend to provide local communities with few permanent jobs, and they consume ample amounts of land, water and electricity.

The local impact of homebuyers from pricier coastal markets exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic has hardly abated in Atlanta, nearly five years later.
That’s according to the listing team and modern-home design experts behind a new $4.5 million listing set to claim a cleared site in Buckhead near Blue Heron Nature Preserve, marking another big bet on the allure of contemporary architect around the city.
“With so many buyers relocating to Atlanta from California, Florida, and New York, we’ve seen a huge trend towards bigger and more design-forward modern homes,” notes Compass listing agent Matthew Doyle, who helps operate the @AtlantaModernHomes social media handle.
Doyle’s latest listing is planned for a .6-acre site at 3939 Ivy Road, situated just south of Wieuca Road and west of Ga. Highway 400.
The project—designed by Scott West of West Architecture Studio, and set to be built by West’s company Lucid Development—calls for five bedrooms and five and ½ bathrooms in 6,400 square feet. That’s a breakdown of $703 per square foot.

Doyle’s team sold the largest spec modern home ever built in Atlanta last year—a 13,000-square-foot sprawler in Buckhead’s Mt. Paran neighborhood—but the Ivy Road project is different, in that it’s being offered on a pre-construction basis and not spec, he said.
“It’s fully permitted and will take about 12 months to complete,” Doyle noted via email. “We’re promoting it as a semi-custom home, as there still is opportunity for potential buyers to work directly with [West] on selecting some of the finishes and possibly tweaking the design.”
Highlights of that two-story design call for 10-foot ceilings and large aluminum-framed windows, an owners suite with attached spa bath on the main floor, a breakfast bar in the sleek kitchen, and a sizable covered patio near the heated saltwater pool.

Other aspects will include a three-car garage, a home security system, and landscaping befitting the contemporary style.
Collectively it’s marketed as a “rare opportunity” and “future contemporary masterpiece.”

At the edge of a popular intown park, a uniquely dense project is gearing up to climb from a parcel occupied by a single house today.
The six-story apartment venture would rise on a corner parcel at 389 Linden Ave., overlooking Central Park and the skylines of downtown and Midtown beyond that, according to filings made this week with Atlanta’s Department of City Planning.
The project previously came before Old Fourth Ward’s Neighborhood Planning Unit–M in the fall of 2021 but has gone quiet since.
According to plans drawn up by metro Atlanta-based GJR Architect, a residential and commercial firm, the building would include 24 apartments at the southeastern corner of the intersection of Linden Avenue and Hunt Street.
The site is about a block south of North Avenue, just west of Boulevard.

The .2-acre parcel is owned by an LLC named for the address, 389 Linden Ave. LLC, led by Reshma Maherali, records show.
The current three-bedroom, brick home on site dates to around 1920, according to Fulton County property records.
The building would top out at 70 feet, with usable space on the rooftop and 18 vehicle parking spaces where the same developer had once proposed townhomes, as What Now Atlanta reported in 2021. The site has already been rezoned for multifamily development.

An influx of new housing near Central Perimeter MARTA stations shows few signs of slowing down, with well over 1,000 units recently delivered or now in the pipeline.
National developer High Street Residential has officially broken ground on a Brookhaven mid-rise project called Residences at Perimeter Summit, a 350-unit apartment venture with two signed restaurant concepts in the mix nearby.
The seven-story building will rise at 1251 Perimeter Summit Parkway, just south of Perimeter Mall within the Interstate 285 loop. In an announcement today, HSR officials called Brookhaven “one of the most desirable suburbs in Georgia.”
Last year HSR, a subsidiary of Trammell Crow Company, closed on 4 acres of land to build the Residences—what project leaders have called a transit-oriented development within walking distance of two MARTA hubs served by rail.
By foot, MARTA’s Medical Center station is roughly a mile away, and Dunwoody station about 1.2 miles.
As designed by the Cooper Carry architecture firm, the Residences project will include studios to three-bedroom apartments with around 900 square feet on average. Plans call for five floors of residential over two parking levels, with a 475-space garage.

Amenities are set to include three courtyards, a resort-style pool and dog park, a clubroom, fitness center, coworking space, golf simulator, pet spa, sauna, and an elevated resident lounge with a kitchen for entertaining and views of the Perimeter skyline, according to High Street officials.
The apartments, all classified as luxury, will be part of the larger Perimeter Summit district, a 1.7-million-square-foot campus purchased by Spear Street Capital in 2022 with buildings standing 21, 18, and 16 stories. Access to existing walking trails around that complex will be another perk of the apartments, per HSR officials.
The Residences are scheduled to deliver by late 2026, with New South Construction onboard to build it.
“Brookhaven, with its historic charm and proximity to one of the liveliest office markets in the country, provides a premier living experience,” Scott Kirchhoff, a principal with HSR’s Atlanta office, noted in today’s groundbreaking announcement.

Beyond the apartments, Perimeter Summit includes office and retail space spread across four buildings total, plus a condo building and 182-room hotel.
According to HSR, Spear Street has attracted “multiple high-profile headquarters relocations and innovation hubs” to the revived Perimeter Summit complex since acquiring it. The company has also partnered with STHRN Hospitality to bring two new restaurants to the development, The Little Gem and Pizza Stop. Both are set to open this year, per HSR.
Elsewhere in Atlanta, HSR recently developed the multifamily component of Georgia Tech’s 18-acre Science Square project on the Westside, The Grace Residences.
In other Central Perimeter residential news, GID Development Group finished the first two apartment buildings in its massive High Street venture last year. Those include 598 apartments within a short walk of MARTA’s Dunwoody station.
Also in Brookhaven, a nearby AMLI-branded, mixed-use project has started delivering another 630 rentals in four buildings. Walkability to MARTA stations is also flaunted as a perk of that project.
A year ago, plans for another 300 multifamily residences were also floated for the last remaining parcel next to insurance giant State Farm’s towering Central Perimeter campus.
