Jamestown has announced details for its new hospitality living concept debuting this year at Ponce City Market.
Scout Living will feature 405 fully furnished one- and two-bedroom units available for flexible lengths of stay, from a single night to a year.
The units include a kitchen stocked with cooking essentials, a dishwasher and a washer-dryer combo, as well as separate living and sleeping spaces. Private Wi-Fi networks will reach throughout the building, and guests will be able to request laundry and dry-cleaning services, restocking of necessities for longer stays and housekeeping. Virtual check-in, keyless locks and 24/7 access to building and tech support will help provide flexibility.
The rooftop of the 21-story building will feature a pool, wellness studio, terrace and reservable residential-style living rooms. The second floor will include a lounge, meeting and event spaces. Daily use will be open to guests, but the second floor will accept bookings for meetings, specialty workspaces and special events.
While the concept is making its debut in Atlanta, future iterations are intended for additional cities in the Jamestown portfolio.
“Over the past few years, there has been a shift toward a more meaningful integration of live, work and travel,” Jamestown President Michael Phillips said in a news release. “Designed to meet that evolution and serve a broad range of lifestyles, Scout Living can be a starter residence for someone new to a city or homebase for someone living and working across multiple cities. With Scout Living, we are creating a new, flexible living experience that recognizes the need to anchor home in convenience, connection, and community.”
Scout Living will be integrated into Ponce City Market and feature 12,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, featuring a food-and-beverage concept and convenience shopping providing essential grab-and-go items. A courtyard common area will provide walkable connectivity between the historic Ponce building, Scout Living and the Atlanta BeltLine.
Scout Living is part of Ponce City Market’s second phase, which also includes 619 Ponce, a four-story mass timber loft office building set for completion in 2024, and Signal House, a new residential building.
Scout Living at Ponce City Market will be powered by Placemakr, a leading flex-living operator.
