Ponce City Market opts for apartments over condos; 12th & Midtown developers acquire more property in the heart of Midtown.
Last week, Midtown Patch took a look at a trio apartment development projects on the westside of the city, but development news was popping in Midtown and the Old Fourth Ward, too. As reported by Curbed Atlanta, the developers behind Ponce City Market have decided to shift from condominiums to apartments. In 2011, Jamestown Properties began plans to adapt the former Sears & Roebuck building and 16-acre tract — some 2 million square feet in all — to create about 1 million square feet of retail, office and residential components, plus parking, green spaces and more.

As one of its Midtown apartment high-rise projects nears completion, Novare Group looks to break ground on its next in early 2013 with "100 6th Street."
The Novare Group and the Batson-Cook Development Company are making progress in soon delivering SkyHouse Midtown after breaking ground on the project in January of this year. Of course, Mother Nature might have her say in the coming weeks as to when the 23-story 320-unit apartment building at the corner of West Peachtree and 12th streets will officially be ready. But whenever so, it will feature studio, 1 and 2 bedroom apartment homes topped by an amenity deck 230 feet above street level.
