Hey there, Atlanta! Big changes are coming your way, and they’re worth getting excited about. The bustling heart of our city is about to get a huge facelift, as more construction is gearing up for the Centennial Yards project. This impressive $5 billion endeavor aims to transform a whopping 50 acres right in the Downtown area into a vibrant entertainment district that promises to be a hub of activity.
Located conveniently next to the renowned State Farm Arena and the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the newest phase of Centennial Yards will cover eight acres and is packed with exciting plans. We’re talking about new buildings that will feature an innovative “eatertainment concept,” a lively venue for entertainment, a flagship hotel, and spaces dedicated to various food and beverage spots. Imagine strolling through a plaza that will soon become a gathering place for celebrations, including our beloved annual New Year’s Eve Peach Drop. How cool is that?
Developers have shared that this soon-to-be-famous phase will include an impressive 480,000 square feet of entertainment, retail, and restaurant spaces. Wow! That’s a lot of room for food, fun, and relaxation!
One of the standout features of the Centennial Yards project is its focus on communal spaces and walkways. They plan to weave plenty of greenery into the design, which will make exploring the district a whole lot more enjoyable. Plus, there’s a lovely nod to the area’s rich railroad heritage, making sure that the past is honored while paving the way for the future.
So when will all this get started? The target for breaking ground is set for summer 2024, giving everyone something to look forward to as the temperatures rise. It’s important to note that what you see coming in this phase is just the beginning; it represents a mere 15 percent of the total area planned for development!
Already, parts of Centennial Yards are busy coming to life. Construction on other elements has kicked off, including an apartment building and a chic 292-key boutique hotel anticipated to welcome guests by 2025. If you’re curious about what’s currently available, check out the Lofts at Centennial Yards South and the trendy Wild Leap brewing company, both open for business at 125 Ted Turner Dr SW.
Looking even further ahead, the team behind Centennial Yards has a pretty ambitious goal: they want to have about two-thirds of the project completed in time to host visitors for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Now, that’s a milestone we can all rally behind!
To ensure the development meets the needs of our vibrant community, an array of local organizations in the restaurant, retail, and real estate sectors are coming together through initiatives designed to help businesses grow and thrive as the construction progresses. If you spot any exciting openings or closings in your local area, feel free to drop a note!
As construction on Centennial Yards continues, it’s clear that Atlanta is stepping into a bright and lively future. With green spaces, stunning architecture, and a focus on community, this project is set to reinvent our downtown area. So, keep your eyes peeled for updates, and let’s celebrate this exciting transformation together. Atlanta, get ready for a whole new adventure!
