Despite some blips in the development market in the last few months — and even some cries of a possible bubble — development is still charging along in Midtown. With projects ranging from office renovations, to massive residential high-rises, there seems to be no slowing this train. From the bottom of Buckhead, to the downtown border, here are the 45 under-construction and proposed projects of Midtown.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION - Going up near the Fox Theatre, and consuming a large portion of the block between North and Ponce de Leon avenues, this three-story research and medical building is a letdown for those craving density on Peachtree. The VOA Associates and Perkins + Will-designed structure completion date was pushed to next year, but the project is pretty much stuck in development purgatory.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION - Located on Peachtree Street, this 12-story residential building designed by Niles Bolton Associates finally got a name: Trace. Work is wrapping up to complete the 290 residential units and 6,300 square feet of retail space, with an opening coming soon.

UNDER CONSTRUCITON - The next phase of the 12th & Midtown development, this 20-story residential building designed by Rule Joy Trammell + Rubio will open soon, bringing 319 residential units, ranging from studios to three-bedrooms, and 14,000 square feet of retail space to the neighborhood north of Tenth Street.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION - Under development for more than a year, this 32-story residential building designed by Smallwood Reynolds is nearing completion.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION - This distinctive five-story residential building designed by Mack Scogin Merrill Elam will bring 48 luxury condo units to Peachtree Street, just across from the High Museum. With the structure almost complete, residents should be able to move in sometime this fall.
UNDER CONSTRUCITON - At just six stories, this is one of the most diminutive buildings rising in Midtown right now. The former Checkers site will contain 328 residential units and 13,000 square feet of retail space designed by Wallace Garcia Wilson Architects. The project should open this fall.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION - Bucking the trend of high-rise development, this eight-story residential building will feature 218 units. Designed by Lord Aeck Sargent, the Alliance Residential project should wrap this fall.
