The City Council of Atlanta approved an application to rezone property at 1953 Memorial Dr SE from R-4 (Single-Family Residential) to MRC-3 (Mixed Residential Commercial). The rezoning facilitates a mixed-use development comprising 65 townhome units and approximately 5,000 square feet of commercial space. The project aims to provide additional housing options and enhance commercial amenities in the area. The approval was subject to several conditions, including design standards for the townhomes, pedestrian-friendly site design, and contributions to local infrastructure improvements. The development is expected to contribute to the revitalization of the Memorial Drive corridor.
