    Love the emphasis on multi-use. Hopefully Invest Atlanta can ensure the multi-income level housing from this project. Not really a fan of all the glass on the top portion, but I guess that's just the aesthetic of our time.

    “Multi level income “, so low income to bring chaos and destruction from those who will never choose to do better and fix their dysfunction. That’s what y’all really mean, free section 8 in a building like this meant to bring money and business, good luck with that fantasy.

    _Outside of affordable housing If we're going off just _*_"new looks"_*_ alone.. then add about 11 more tall skyscrapers 700ft or higher like the truist tower level & 30 more mixed use buildings/stores 400-600ft high. Atlanta definitely has the money & the view needs some help visually it's neatly sculpted, but it'll make the city of Atlanta much much bigger like Manhattan or Chicago/ their skylines are large & full with tall towers you can see from a distance. I would spread them out more above the Ponce city market area then over towards the westside above the Benz stadium then connect both sides up to the Midtown area & finally connecting them all the way up to the city of Buckhead. That big separation gap between Downtown, Midtown & Buckhead needs to be filled with big buildings right now it just doesn't complete the look that's why Atlanta has like 2 or 3 separate skylines resulting in the sq mi of the city to be smaller than Houston/Denver etc._

    Lower-income can reside in another building, not this one.

    Studies show that mixing affordable with market rate has a beneficial impact on the area.

    Love that they're building tall, but that is a hideous building. Architecturally disjointed. Looks like a child stacked legos from different sets on top of each other.

    This is a problem! Especially seeing how the developers don’t have no kind of black contractors working with him (as the law in Atlanta has it since Maynard Jackson) plus this high rise will be empty because nobody can afford that crap! If 50% of the units aren’t affordable!! This building shouldn’t exist! Quite frankly the permit must be pulled until it’s stated that 50% of the units will be affordable for those making below 30% Median area income

    It’s targeted audience is for the wealthy. The remaining units will be occupied. As far as the affordable units goes, it’s forecasted to be filled immediately by middle class workers bc of the demand for multi use assets.

NYC is crushing Atlanta's architecture by far Atl only has like 3 nice buildings the Westin, BOA plaza & The Truist plaza. They have nothing on the Empire state building, Central Park tower, the Vanderbilt, Chrysler building.... let alone the one world trade center I can go for days lmao they have nothing on Chicago, LA or Philly either._
