The final total of demolished buildings is 71 for construction of the Windy Hill Road/Terrell Mill Road Connector.

The Cobb County Board of Commissioners voted 5-0 on Feb. 11 to award contracts to Excellere Construction to demolish the final 16 of those 71 buildings.

Approximately 0.7 miles in length, the project will consist of constructing a new thoroughfare between Windy Hill Road and Terrell Mill Road.

This new thoroughfare will begin at the intersection of Windy Hill Road and Spectrum Circle and continue north to the intersection of Terrell Mill Road and Bentley Road.

The new four-lane road will have a raised center median to include a sidewalk and multi-use trail.

  • 6 buildings at The Woods Condominiums,
  • 27 buildings at Turnberry Lane Townhomes,
  • 2 buildings at Forest Ridge Condominiums,
  • 12 buildings at Terrell Ridge Condominiums,
