915 Glenwood actually abuts the Beltline if Im not mistaken. We've gotten on down at Confederate and walked the old tracks to Krog St several times. For those in the area, eventhough there's not a paved path, it is well traversed and easy to walk that part of the beltline below Krog and down below Glenwood just FYI! I wouldnt really say its for bikers because a good portion is still rail tracks but mountain biking wouldnt be problem.
Some of my favorite parts of the BeltLine are areas not yet built out and feel similar to a nature preserve in need of a little restoration.
If these plans move forward and are fully built out I was be absolutely impressed with the vision. I think i see private streets and blockades in some of the renderings (Third Rail Studios, p. 18), where i'm against blocking off streets to the public, but in general it seems like a solid project that provides a core to an area with some of the best cultural diversity metro Atlanta has offer.
Loudermilk is also behind several Buckhead Village developments, both new and planned, including, “The Charles,” an 18-story condo building at Peachtree and East Paces Ferry roads.
With a construction loan in place from Bank of the Ozarks and up to 17 pre-sales expected to close in the next several weeks, The Charles could be in development by June, Loudermilk said.
I love the Charles building and am glad it's moving onward. However, I do hate that the nice row of well-preserved brick buildings will be demolished to make way for it. The walkable street presence those lend will be lost. Could they not have made it fit the empty lot up from that row? No point worrying about it now, I guess.
It's almost like it's appropriate being nearly a mile away from a HRT station in an enclave 7 miles from the city center
I would imagine all the upscale condos in downtown, Midtown and Lenox have parking decks, even though they may be very close to HRT stations. It's just how we roll in this town.
I'm in Dallas right now and have passed several intown high rise condo & apartment buildings under construction and they all appear to have multiple levels of parking at the base. And these are in relatively close proximity to DART light rail stations. Just an observation while in this rapidly growing city, similar to the pace at which ATL is growing ITP.

Looking at google maps, I think it's only being built on the empty part of the lot. Maybe I'm wrong though?
With the exception of the Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams building they're taking up the rest of the triangular block bordered by Peachtree, Bolling Way, and East Paces Ferry. This knocks out the place where Fish Hawk and the temporary leasing office for Hanover's East Paces project currently stands.
You can still see the corner retailer in the rendering below.
The lot over in your map is for Oliver McMillan's next phase of Buckhead pulling in more office space.

This will be a fantastic addition for the neighborhood as well as Atlanta as a whole.
