Led by multifamily developer Pennrose, the project will feature four three-story residential buildings – plus a leasing office and amenity building – rising on a roughly four-acre site near the intersection of Hardwick and Bowen Avenue. Last week’s filings for vertical construction follow the developer starting preliminary work over the summer at the site, which is vacant wooded land just east of Luther J. Price Middle School.

Haven at South Atlanta will offer 32 one-bedrooms, 42 two-bedrooms, and 10 three-bedrooms, along with a community room, fitness area, and computer lab, application materials show. Plans have called for asking rents to range from $544 to $1,115, with 17 units to be priced at 50 percent of area median income, 54 at 60 percent AMI, and the remaining 13 at market rates.

The project will also provide 98 automobile parking spaces and 15 bicycle spaces.

Also involved in the South Atlanta development is project architect Kitchen & Associates, which is a New Jersey-based multidisciplinary design firm, as well as J. Lancaster Associates, the project’s landscape architect.

Headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennrose specializes in the development of mixed-income residential projects across the country. It has developed over 17,000 units and worked in 16 states, according to its website.
