Zoning Review Board - Support Amsterdam Walk!

What's happening?
A mixed-use development is
being proposed along the Beltline next to Piedmont Park in the
Virginia-Highland and Morningside-Lenox neighborhoods and will be considered this Thursday by the Atlanta Zoning Review Board. Despite being approved by the neighborhood associations, NPU F recommended against the rezoning. Show your support by writing a letter to the Zoning Review Board!
The proposed development would add:
+ 840 new apartments in a transit-friendly, walkable neighborhood
+ 168 of these apartments reserved as permanently affordable housing (at 80% AMI)
+ 90k SF of Beltline-oriented retail (12.5% of retail reserved at lower rates for local businesses)
+ 150k SF office space

Why does it matter?
This project would offer nearly 2,000
new residents a mixed-income, mixed-use place to live in one of our
city's most walkable, bikeable, and currently exclusionary
neighborhoods. This would be the first new apartments in
Virginia-Highland in 15 YEARS! We need robust housing growth through
projects like this to accommodate Atlanta's growing population and
prevent rising rents, displacement, and urban sprawl.
