N. Peachtree Rd & I-285 - 70,000 sf of Office Space & 665 Apartments. Meeting Wednesday.

Perimeter Crest Office Park which is located behind the former Hanwoori restaurant (across from Pets are People Too) at I-285 & North Peachtree (just south of Savoy) has applied for a rezoning and special use permit. The application states...

The Subject Property currently houses a 1960's-style industrial park, which is only 26% occupied. Once redeveloped, the Subject Property will contain 70,000 sf of office space. The office buildings will front Perimeter Park Drive and will be moved closer to the street to create a more urban and pedestrian friendly environment. An application for a setback variance will be filed in conjunction with this application.

The Subject Property also will contain 665 multifamily residential units (to include workforce housing) and an 8,000 sf community center. The multifamily units will be contained in 3 buildings: a 7-story, 340 unit structure wrapped around a 6-story parking deck; a 4-5 story multi-family structure wrapped around a 4-5 story parking deck, and a 4-story, 80 unit structure. The applicant is filing contemporaneously herewith an application for a Special Use Permit to allow the heights and types of high-rise development the project contemplates. Overall, the residential density will be 37.5 units per acre (a base density of 30 units per acre plus a 25% density bonus for workforce housing).

The Ashford Alliance (much like the Dunwoody Homeowners Association) Planning and Development Committee will be holding an open meeting with the developer this evening (Wednesday) at 7 pm at St. Martin in the Fields Episcopal Church 3110 Ashford Dunwoody Road Atlanta, GA 30319 Enter through Gable Hall entrance, Follow through Gable Hall, Meeting room straight ahead.

This issue will also need to be reviewed at the DeKalb Community Council Meeting on April 22 at 6:30 PM at the Chamblee Library prior to being heard by the DeKalb Board of Commissioners on May 6th.

Thanks.
