Plans Revealed For $400 Million First Phase of Quarry Yards

Mark Teixeira, former Atlanta Braves first baseman and MLB All-Star, along with Urban Creek Partners Jimmy Barry and Joel Bowman, Wednesday unveiled plans for Quarry Yards.

The 70-acre mixed-use development, adjacent to the Bankhead Marta Station on Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway, will "transform the Grove Park neighborhood and create a lifestyle community connected to nature, fitness, and innovation."

The development’s 27-acre, $400 million first phase is expected to break ground by the end of 2018.

Phase one of Quarry Yards, which is 1.5 miles from Teixeira’s alma mater Georgia Tech, is currently zoned to include 575,000 square feet of Class A office, 850 residential units, a 300-key hotel, and 75,000 square feet of retail and restaurants.

Urban Creek Partners also announced it is working with Pollack Shores Real Estate Group on forming a joint venture partnership for the multifamily development and is in discussions with an innovative retail partner on a food hall concept.
