Atlanta Housing, Georgia’s largest housing authority, has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the redevelopment of a vacant historic hotel into a mixed-income community.
The property was built in 1973 is a former Ramada Plaza that is commonly known as Stadium Hotel. It is located near key Atlanta attractions including the Georgia State University athletic campus, Center Parc Stadium, and the Georgia Avenue corridor. The redevelopment project plans to pursue an adaptive reuse of the 15-story tower, creating approximately 250 age-restricted, affordable rental units for residents 55 and older. Ground-floor commercial spaces will also be designed to support local businesses and enhance neighborhood connectivity. The redevelopment will also emphasize sustainable building practices.
“Together with our developer partners, we will breathe new life into an empty commercial property, transforming it into a place to call home and one of opportunity,” said Terri Lee, President and CEO of Atlanta Housing. “This project offers developers a chance to create a vibrant, welcoming residence for over 250 seniors and families – a place where people of all backgrounds and generations can connect and thrive.”
