Perimeter Mixed-Use Project Near Atlanta is Rejected
June 18, 2008
Source: Atlanta Journal Constitution

Members of the Sandy Springs (Georgia) City Council have given the thumbs down to a project that would have added a mix of apartments, offices, retail shops and an eight-story hotel as well as more than 850 cars per hour. Known as the Perimeter area project, it would have replaced a 1960s-era office complex that currently sits on the 25-acre site.

Though developer De Little of the Atlanta-based Greenstone Properties claimed intersection improvements that were included in the proposed development would have smoothed traffic flow, council members were not convinced. "This project is too dense, too much traffic," Councilman Tibby DeJulio told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "This is not the place for it."
