A new mixed-use project is proposed for Fulton County.
The development would rise along Avon Avenue and Higgins Street. It would bring 850 residential units and 98,336 square feet of retail and restaurant space to the site in southwest Atlanta, according to a Developments of Regional Impact (DRI) filing.
The team behind the project is listed as Urban Oasis Development, an Atlanta-based real estate company that was selected earlier this year to be a developer of another housing development in the area called Murphy Crossing.
According to a rezoning application with the City of Atlanta, the project would be a “transit-oriented mixed-use development.” It is located near the Oakland City MARTA station.
“The proposed development seeks to support neighborhood and City goals by providing high density residential uses, adjacent to high-capacity transit and current/future Beltline trails,” according to the application. “This development will also increase access to both job opportunities and commercial retail that is solely needed within the adjacent neighborhoods and greater community.”
According to the DRI filing, the timeline for the Avon-Higgins project is 10 years.
