Capitol Gateway - Mixed Income, Mixed Use

Located in the shadow of the Georgia State Capitol Building, southeast of downtown Atlanta, Capitol Gateway is a Hope VI-sponsored redevelopment of the former Capitol Homes public housing project. The project represents the first and second phases of the $120 million mixed-use, mixed-income development including 45,000 s.f. of retail and nearly 1,000 rental housing units. The project’s urban design establishes a revived pedestrian-friendly edge along Memorial Drive, utilizing 4-story apartment buildings with retail and live/ work units at street level. The urban plan corresponds to the Memorial Drive Revitalization Study designs completed for the corridor by PRAXIS3 a few years before the inception of Capitol Gateway.
