CODA Building Breaks Ground in Midtown Atlanta

January 9, 2017 by Thom Abbott

Coda Technology Square Midtown AtlantaGeorgia Tech and Portman have broken ground on an exciting new addition to the GATech campus, particularly Tech Square and Midtown Atlanta. A forgotten corner at 4th and Spring Streets will eventually be home to the new high performance computing center. 

The building will be 21-stories, and is incorporating the historic Crum & Forester Building that stands on the corner of Armstead Place and Spring Street. The name was shortened from the High Performance Computing Center to Coda. The developer hopes to finish the building in 2019.

Plans call for the building to be home to some 2,400 workers, including Tech researchers as well as staff and employees from private sector firms. The project is estimated to cost $375 million. 

This section of Spring Street is finally seeing some changes after having been in the shadows of the rest of Midtown Atlanta. Across the street from Coda, is a new student housing building going up that is being built by developer Selig Enterprises. The GATech Hotel and Conference Center is just across Spring Street.

The entire complex will total about 1 million square feet. About 750,000 square feet will be office, retail and data center space. Georgia Tech will occupy and lease from Portman, who will own the tower, about half of the office floor space, while the rest will be leased to major companies and startups.

CODA Breaks Ground at Tech Square

Here is a short video from the Ground Breaking event in December, 2016. 

 

 

There are certainly many living options nearby Coda for people looking to live in Midtown Atlanta that will be working in this building. Obviously it’s a couple years from delivery, but we will we watching and waiting to help new employees find place to live in Midtown Atlanta near Coda.

Twisted Kitchen Midtown Atlanta to Open in January

December 12, 2015 by Thom Abbott

Twisted Kitchen Midtown AtlantaIndeed, we know that restaurants a plenty seems to be the retail du jour for Midtown Atlanta! And January will add a new option!

Twisted Kitchen Midtown Atlanta to Open in January

Twisted Kitchen, which currently has one outpost near Kennesaw State University, will be opening in January at University House on Spring and 8th Streets. According to owner Michael Cohen, “We’ve been ready to open since August. All the equipment and entire design is ready to go,” Cohen told What Now Atlanta (WNA) in a telephone conversation Tuesday.

Twisted Kitchen Midtown Menu“We’re just waiting on the permitting, but we should be open within 60 days.”

A glance at the menu from Kennesaw restaurant kinda makes your mouth water! The prices are extremely reasonable….and considering they are opening in a student apartment building, let’s hope they continue that trend. With lots of fresh ingredients to add to your pasta dish, this is sure to be a great spot for students…and student athletes looking for some good carbs!

Twisted Kitchen will certainly have some great neighbors to draw from as well. Currently, within a one block radius, you have Midcity Lofts, Plaza Midtown, Aqua, University House (where the restaurant is located) SQ5, another student apartment building, and under construction just behind the building is Modera Midtown. And the new NCR corporate headquarters has just broken ground next door as well!

It’s great to finally see some life coming to Spring Street, between 10th and 5th. The huge vacant lots that have been there forever and soon to be no more…being replaced by cool buildings and lots of people on the streets!

Once we’ve had a chance to sample Twisted Kitchen, we will report back to you!

Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta |Atlanta Condos For Sale

December 12, 2015 by Thom Abbott

One of the great things about condominium living in Midtown Atlanta is the old saying, “variety is the spice of life.” Whether you are looking for old or new, high-rise or one story, lots of amenities or no amenities, Midtown Atlanta has probably got the building for you.

I used to be able to say we had condos in all price ranges, but that gap is truly becoming smaller and smaller. So, when I have a condo buyer call me and they are on a budget, the first suggestion I make is Cornerstone Village.

Cornerstone Village GATech Off Campus Housing Condos

Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta

Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta is one of the few remaining condo buildings where you can find a 1 bedroom for less than $200,000 and a 2 bedroom for less than $300,000! Of course, there are reasons this building has lower values than some of the neighboring buildings like Viewpoint or Spire. But let’s look at all the benefits of living and owning at Cornerstone Village!

The community consists of 4 different buildings. Two are historic buildings from the 1940’s that have seen some varied uses, and two are newer construction as the development was created in 1999.

Landmark Before After

The Landmark building is the largest building, located on the corner of 5th and Peachtree Streets. Once an office building, the interior was gutted and the current condominiums created in 1998/1999. There is a variety of 1 and 2 bedroom floor plans available, ranging from approximately 625 square feet to around 1300 square feet for the largest 2 bedroom floor plan. The homes in this building feature a range of flooring from concrete to hardwoods. Exposed ductwork and original brick walls (the exterior of the building) are unique features found in the Landmark Building. The building is 6 stories and has two elevators. There are no community amenities in the building…they are located elsewhere within the community.

Cornerstone Village Manor HouseNext, we have the Manor House. This building started out as the Manor House Hotel, and later became apartments before finally becoming part of Cornerstone Village. All the homes in this building are 1 bedroom floor plans. They have a more “finished” feeling with hardwood flooring, granite countertops and finished ceilings. There is no exposed brick or ductwork. I’ve seen some homes that have had changes or renovations made to them that made them much more unique than their original plan. The Manor House has a nice lobby area, and also contains the Fitness Center, a laundry room (left over from the apartment building days…each home has washer/dryer connections) the Movie Theater, a conference room, Resident Package Room and the HOA Management office. The HOA office would be the most likely place for a club room, but it is currently not used for that purpose.

Georgia Tech Off Campus HousingThe remaining two buildings are the new construction section that was built in 1999. Originally, they were going to be apartments that shared the condo amenities. But the sales of the homes in the Landmark and Manor House spurred the developer to convert the entire complex into condos. Called The Gallery originally, these two buildings are most often referred to as the 100 and 200 building. The difference between the two….the 100 building is larger, and has two elevators. The 200 Building is smaller and there is no direct elevator access to the building. These two buildings circle the resort-styled swimming pool and entertainment deck. Here you will find gas grills and seating are for outdoor dining and poolside chillin’! Additionally, in the 100 Building you will find a bike storage room and a game room, equipped with a pool table and foosball table.

I would say the main factors that keep Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta more affordable is the lack of a 24-hour Concierge, and the four different buildings. So, if you live in the Landmark Building and want to use the Fitness Center, it’s not located right in the same building as you might find in the newer, high-rise buildings. But if you can save $75,000 or more on the cost of a condo, it might be worth it, right?

Amenities collage

Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta certainly does not lack for convenience when it comes to location. CVS Pharmacy, Gordon Biersch Brewery, Five Guys Burgers, Fresh To Order and Senor Patron’s Mexican restaurant are all just in the next block!!! On the street level of the Landmark Building, you will find El Scorpion Restaurant, Big Peach Running and recently, Einstein’s Bagels! Just behind the 100/200 Buildings on Cypress Street is Cypress Pint and Plate…with an awesome outdoor patio with a gas fire pit! This is a cool place to hang out for sure!

And then there is the convenience of everything else! Starting with Technology Square and Georgia Tech…just 2 blocks away! Need to get to the airport for a business trip or weekend getaway? The Midtown MARTA station OR the North Avenue MARTA station are about equal distance North or South from Cornerstone Village.

If you are looking for value, and want to live in Midtown Atlanta, then I encourage you to take a look at Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta! There is more than meets the eye to this community!~

Georgia Tech Off Campus Housing |Can We Still Buy A Midtown Atlanta Condo?

August 4, 2013 by Thom Abbott

Georgia Tech

Last week, we just closed on another Midtown Atlanta condo for Georgia Tech Parents that chose Georgia Tech Off Campus Housing for their GATech student. We realize that every family and every budget is different. You may be able to spend more for the newer, modern high rises that are within walking distance to Technology Square and the rest of the campus. But some parents ask us, “Are there good investments that we can still make and not spend a fortune?”   Yes there is.

Georgia Tech Off Campus Housing |Can We Still Buy A Midtown Atlanta Condo?

Cornerstone Village Midtown Atlanta 2011 SalesThe answer to that question is a guarded “yes.”

An example of a Midtown Atlanta condominium community that is close to GATech and still affordable is Cornerstone Village. This community is comprised of 4 buildings, two which are historic and two that are newer construction. Most Georgia Tech parents desire to purchase a two bedroom so that their son or daughter can have a room mate who in turn helps make your mortgage payment.  As of this post writing, there is only ONE 2-bedroom listed in the building!

But let’s back up a bit and look at the sales history in the building so you can see where we were, and where we are headed!

Cornerstone Village took a hard hit in the real estate slide of 2009-2011. There were many foreclosures, but despite those, the homeowners association has remained strong, and kept the community financially stable. But from 2011 and forward, the prices have risen dramatically at Cornerstone Village, especially in the 1 bedroom homes. The chart to the left, shows the sale for 2011 in the building.  Yes, you could of bought a condo in Midtown Atlanta for $50,000-60,000!!!

 

But now, fast forward to 2013. Times have changed indeed. A smaller (635 sq. ft) home just closed for $124,000!! How’s THAT for a return on your investment! Below, the chart on the left shows the current Active Listings, Under Contract and Short Sales that are Under Contract. The chart on the right shows the homes sold so far in 2013.

 

 

Cornerstone Village 2013 Sales Activity

 

The Question: “Can We Still Buy A Midtown Atlanta Condo?”  And the guarded “yes” answer…prices have risen dramatically and this could continue, or start to slow down significantly with the rise in interest rates. There certainly is limited inventory, which could help to keep the prices moving upwards.

Either way, now is the time to make your decision about Georgia Tech Off Campus housing. I’m also often asked about leasing the condo out. Currently the building does not have any leasing permits available, and the wait list is probably around 4+ years before you would clear it and obtain a leasing permit. That said, if you did purchase now, have your son/daughter attend school for 4 years (or take the 6 year plan like I did!) you very well may, I repeat may clear the leasing permit list. I can tell you from a rental standpoint, that Cornerstone Village is an easy building to rent! One bedrooms rent for $1100-1200 and two bedroom comand $1600 and up, depending on the floor plan.

Georgia Tech Parents and Off Campus Housing. YES, you can still buy a Midtown Atlanta condo at Cornerstone Village!! If you are looking to make a Midtown Atlanta condo purchase, or need more information about the Georgia Tech Off Campus Housing options available, please complete the form below and we will be in contact with you!

If you answered No to this question, Please click on the Preferred Vendor list Above once you have completed this form. There you will find contact information and links to our recommended Mortgage Lenders.
