Developer seeks makeover of land near Atlanta Beltline in Reynoldstown

Madison Yards, a major residential-commercial makeover of the Leggett & Platt industrial site on the Atlanta Beltline in southeast Atlanta, is scheduled to come before the City Council Zoning Committee on Wednesday.

Fuqua Development is seeking rezoning of the 17.5-acre site at 905 Memorial Drive SE in Reynoldstown to allow 400 multi-family units, 200 senior units and 130,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space anchored by a grocery store.

The project also will offer a theater, health club, parking in multiple on-site decks and retail space along the Beltline featuring two-sided glass storefronts, according to a Fuqua website on the development. Fuqua notes that 3,900 multi-family units are in development in the area.
