Rezoning Sought for High-Density Mixed-Use Project Along Monroe Drive

According to Urbanize Atlanta, big changes could be coming to a familiar stretch near Piedmont Park and Ponce City Market. Recent filings reveal plans for a nine-story mixed-use development at 724-728 Monroe Drive, currently home to popular spots like Drenched Cycle Studio and Big Easy Snowballs. The proposed project would bring 107 residential units and 1,700 square feet of retail space to the .58-acre site, along with new height and density. Located in the Atlanta BeltLine Overlay, the development is subject to affordable housing rules—15% of units will be reserved at 80% AMI. Designed by Place Maker Design, the project requires rezoning and a height variance, signaling a transformative step for this Midtown corridor.
