The Atlanta City Council approved the rezoning of a 1.5-acre parcel located at 123 Main Street from R-4 (Single-Family Residential) to MRC-3 (Mixed Residential-Commercial). This decision facilitates the construction of a new mixed-use development comprising 50 residential units and approximately 10,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The project aims to enhance neighborhood walkability and provide much-needed housing options. Conditions for approval included specific design standards for building materials and landscaping, as well as a commitment to affordable housing units, accounting for 10% of the total residential units. The development will feature a four-story building with subterranean parking. Public feedback during the hearing was mixed, with some residents expressing concerns about increased traffic and building height, while others supported the increased housing density and retail amenities. The vote passed 8-1.
