ATLANTA — OaksATL Community Development will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony this week to mark the completion and grand opening of 880 North, a pioneering mixed-use infill project in Atlanta’s historic English Avenue neighborhood.
The development transforms a long-vacant site into six affordable housing units, affordable commercial space for small businesses, and community-serving amenities.
Designed as a first-of-its-kind project for the area, 880 North aims to deliver much-needed housing and economic opportunity while preserving the character of Atlanta’s Historic Westside.

Community leaders, project partners, elected officials, neighborhood stakeholders, and residents are expected to attend the ceremony. Attendees will commemorate the milestone and highlight the project’s focus on creating affordable housing and supporting local businesses without displacing existing residents.
The initiative underscores a growing emphasis in Atlanta on equitable redevelopment strategies that prioritize long-term community stability. By redeveloping underutilized land into integrated housing and commercial space, 880 North serves as a potential model for similar efforts across the city’s Westside neighborhoods.
Further details about the event, including the exact date and time of the ribbon-cutting, are expected to be released by OaksATL Community Development in the coming days.
