It’s no secret that West Midtown, a mostly industrial area, is undergoing massive reconstruction and will continue to do so heavily over the next decade. A wave of development is making its way to Brady Avenue this summer with plans to replace nightclubs Compound and Republic Sports and Social by April 2023. Rather than Midtown’s commercial office district, West Midtown offers less expensive land that is attracting major companies such as Nike, Airbnb, and Ford Motor Company. Several developers have converted warehouses across the West Midtown area into mixed use development and manufacturing facilities that have gained traction.
Westbridge, a commercial real estate firm, has already begun Phase 1 of construction on this final Stockyard development and named it 926 Brady. This remaining warehouse, which previously served train lines as early as the 1930’s, is being converted as an office and commercial space that will bring new interest to the evolving urban area. 926 Brady will house 36,000 square feet of new office space with a strong objective of preserving West Midtown’s historic persona. On the top floor of 926 Brady will be a mixed indoor-outdoor terrace for office tenant use. The developers aim to bring “something truly unique in the market, as the area transitions to mid-rise and high-rise new construction projects,” says Clarion Partners vice president of asset management, Joshua Mandelberger to Urbanize Atlanta.
