The residential subsidiary of Trammell Crow Co. broke ground this week on Residences at Perimeter Summit, a 350-unit mid-rise apartment building at 1251 Perimeter Summit Parkway across Interstate 285 from Perimeter Mall.
High Street purchased the 5-acre parcel within the 1.7M SF Perimeter Summit campus for $11.5M nearly a year ago. Now it has begun a wood-framed project with apartments ranging between 900 and 1,400 SF.
The project amenities will include a resort-style pool, a 1,200 SF speakeasy lounge, a coworking center, tasting room, pet spa, golf simulator and a sauna.
High Street tapped Cooper Carry as the design architect and New South Construction as the general contractor.

DEVELOPMENT
Gorman & Co. is pursuing $3.5M in Westside Tax Allocation District financing for its redevelopment of 143 Alabama St., a longtime vacant relic in Downtown Atlanta. Gorman plans to covert the 95K SF building, used for Georgia Power’s offices until the early 1970s, into 46 units of affordable housing with almost 12K SF of ground-floor retail.
But before that transformation, Gorman plans to restore the building in time for the 2026 World Cup as well as redevelop the greenspace behind the building into “The Pitch,” where cultural events could be hosted during the soccer event, according to documents from Invest Atlanta.
The city’s economic development arm tapped Gorman last year to spearhead 143 Alabama’s redevelopment. After the World Cup, Gorman plans to develop a newly built, 151-unit affordable apartment tower. Gorman plans to apply for a 9% low-income housing tax credit in May, according to IA. The board is expected to vote Feb. 20 on the incentive.
