Griffin Plans $90M Mixed-Use Venture

ATLANTA-Griffin Co., one of the area’s earliest condominium developers, is betting the west side of GA 400, within the hot Central Perimeter submarket, will pay off at its newest planned project, NorthPlace.

The 29-year-old development company is scheduled to break ground this summer in suburban Sandy Springs, GA on a total 370,000 sf of office and retail space and 130 condominium units at the northeast corner of Barfield Road and Mount Vernon Highway, along GA 400.

NorthPlace is the former location of the World Ford auto dealership and is zoned for two class A office buildings with ground-level retail. The project will comprise a six-story, 120,000-sf structure; a 10-story, 250,000-sf building; an adjacent seven-level parking structure; and 130 residential condo units. The 9.6-acre site is within walking distance to the Sandy Springs Marta station.
