The Star Metals District in Atlanta is set to expand its presence in the thriving West Midtown area. The developer, Allen Morris Co., along with partner Animal, are moving forward with their next phases which will add a total of 1.5 million square feet to the district. Currently, Star Metals includes both residential and office buildings and construction on another residential tower called Stella is already underway.
The upcoming phases will bring an additional 800 residential units, 100,000 square feet of retail space and 200 hotel rooms to the district. With demand for commercial real estate on the rise again after recent challenges due to COVID-19, there may also be potential for more office space in future developments at Star Metals. Currently, the existing office building at Star Metals boasts a high occupancy rate of 97%.
According to reports from The Atlanta Business Chronicle , this final phase of development will see over three acres transformed into a bustling hub featuring hotels, retail spaces and apartments just south of where PrizePicks – daily fantasy sports operator – has already established itself as one of many successful tenants within Star Metal Offices’ complex . This prime location was acquired several years ago by assembling land parcels bounded by Howell Mill Avenue ,11th Street , Edgehill Avenue as well as Bellingrath Avenue.
