ATLANTA-The largest redevelopment project ever attempted by the five year-old Atlanta Housing Authority is scheduled to break ground this week on the 343-acre vacant former Perry Homes project site five miles from Downtown.

The $340 million West Highlands golf course community will have 1,000 homes, 700 apartments, an undetermined amount of retail, a charter school, library and YMCA. The course, designed by Jack Nicklaus, will be built atop a former landfill location.

Noel Khalil of locally based Columbia Residential is the lead private developer doing the Intown joint venture with the city. Steve Brock of Brock Built is among several developers participating in the project which is expected to draw new residents from outlying affluent communities such as Buckhead and Vinings, according to city planners.
