CCI Real Estate has received rezoning approval to move forward with the half-acre project on the campus, according to an announcement. The project, in partnership with the Georgia Baptist Mission Board (GBMB), will replace the existing Baptist Collegiate Ministry (BCM) location at Georgia Tech.
The company plans to build a mixed-use community on the site at 740 Techwood Drive. It is expected to offer 55 one- and two-bedroom residential units, upgraded ministry facilities, a coffeehouse, and additional gathering spaces.
The five-story building will be 64,000 square feet, including 12,000 square feet of student community space at the street level.
“This rezoning approval is a significant milestone in CCI’s mission to bring integrated, community-driven developments to GBMB’s locations on campuses across Georgia,” CCI Real Estate CEO Jeff Warwick said in a statement. “BCM has served Georgia Tech for over three-quarters of a century, and now it will get a well-deserved upgrade to usher in a new chapter of growth and ministry in Atlanta. By developing a vibrant, mixed-use community, we aim to support BCM’s long-standing impact on students at Georgia Tech while also providing much-needed student housing in a prime location on campus.”
Plans call for construction to begin in summer 2025, with an opening expected in summer 2027.
This isn’t the only project CCI Real Estate has in the pipeline. The firm is also redeveloping the BCMs at the University of Georgia in Athens and at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro.
