Buckhead Village District (previous named the Streets of Buckhead and Buckhead Atlanta)[1] is a Шаблон:Convert planned mixed-use development in the Buckhead district in Atlanta, Georgia. The project is a redevelopment of part of the Buckhead Village neighborhood bounded by Peachtree Rd., E. Paces Ferry Rd., Pharr Rd., and N. Fulton Drive. It is located just Шаблон:Convert from two of the region's most prominent and upscale malls, Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza.
History
In May 2011, San Diego-based OliverMcMillan Inc. purchased the land from Ben Carter Properties and began developing the project.[2] The project was renamed that same month.
In September 2011, McMillan announced a further delay in the project, and that construction would not begin until the end of the first quarter of 2012. McMillan intended to invest $300 million to complete the project in which Ben Carter had already invested $400 million. The total planned development was then targeted at 370 apartments, Шаблон:Convert of retail space and Шаблон:Convert of "boutique" office space.[3]
In early 2013 construction began after a hiatus of three years.[4] As of July 2014 the project was nearing completion.[5]
In 1838, Henry Irby had purchased Шаблон:Convert surrounding what is now Buckhead Village from Daniel Johnson for $650. Irby subsequently established a general store and tavern at the northwest corner of the Peachtree–Roswell–Paces Ferry intersection.[6]
To reverse a downturn in the Village during the 1980s, minimum parking spot requirements for bars were lifted, which quickly led to it becoming the most dense concentration of bars and clubs in the city,[7] such as BAR, World Bar, Lulu's Bait Shack, Mako's, Tongue & Groove, Chaos and John Harvard's Brew House. By 1996 Buckhead Village nightlife was like "Mardi Gras, complete with nightly arrests, puking in the streets and [drunk] college girls".[8]
By the late 1990s the clientele was changing, street cruising and "hanging" was common, and crime was increasing, sometimes violent. To ameliorate the situation, the Atlanta City Council passed an ordinance to close bars at 2:30 a.m. rather than 4 a.m., and liquor licenses were made more difficult to obtain or renew. Most of the bars and nightclubs closed between 2000 and 2007.
In 2006–07, Ben Carter bought parcels in the area in order to develop the Streets of Buckhead. Demolition of existing structures began in August 2007.
Original plans by developer Ben Carter Properties, LLC[9] called for a $1.5 billionШаблон:Cn upscale mixed-use development. The Streets of Buckhead was dubbed "Atlanta's new upscale shopping", as it was to feature Шаблон:Convert of exclusive shopping, 14 fine dining restaurants, two four-star hotels, 350 multimillion-dollar condominia and class-A office space.[10][11] It aimed to be the most exclusive shopping area in the Southern United States.
Originally scheduled for a grand opening of November 2009, by April 2009, work slowdowns pushed the projected opening back to Fall 2011.[12]
On May 2, 2011, San Diego-based OliverMcMillan Inc. purchased the land from Ben Carter Properties. Baupost Group LLC, a Boston hedge fund, is to provide $300 million of new equity.
OliverMcMillan plans to change much of the original plans: they are "not seeking a Rodeo Drive-type development" and "the level of restaurants and retail might be somewhat different". It is to be an "urban village" woven into the Buckhead Community.
The preliminary revised plans called for Шаблон:Convert of retail and restaurants, Шаблон:Convert of boutique offices and two 20-story luxury apartment buildings. Plans no longer include the two hotels. Rather than upscale restaurants, the development will target local chefs. A street grid system and street-level cafés and stores are to promote walkability.[2]
The first retailers and restaurants opened on September 18, 2014.[13]
