Construction is full speed ahead on the new 13-story building that will be known as 99 West Paces in Buckhead. The property includes apartments, street level retail space, and a rentable office level in a great location near Whole Foods on West Paces Ferry Rd. We first reported on this development by JLB Partners in 2019. This first phase of the development is scheduled to be completed in winter 2021.
“The Comfortable Side of Buckhead”
99 West Paces promises its residents sophistication and comfort. Apartments range from 1br to 3br flats, and penthouse units up to 3490 sq.ft. All of the units feature designer colors and hardwood floors. Kitchens include Kitchen Aid or Thermador gas appliances and quartz counters, and some units offer upgrades like a beverage fridge and built-in wine storage.
Penthouse residents will have access to exclusive amenities, but there will be plenty of perks for all of the residents. There is 24/7 concierge service and an outdoor community terrace. The resort style pool will feature poolside cabanas, and there will be an on-site wellness club and yoga studio.
Neighborhood Impact
Even under construction, the tower dwarfs its neighbors. Citizen’s Bank on one side and 103 West on the other. The three lots between 99 West Paces and East Andrews Drive already look like they could use some updating, and are ripe for redevelopment (which has been rumored for some time). The initial plan was for 525 apartments and 989 parking spaces, but those numbers had to be reduced at the recommendation of the Development Review Committee of Special Public Interest District 9 in 2017. The final design includes 313 multifamily units and 542 parking spaces, in addition to the street-level retail space.
We have reached out to the developers for more details, and we will update this post as we receive more information.
