Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.

    With more than 700 movie and TV projects just in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.

    Underground Atlanta Transformation: Hotel, Housing, Nightclub Coming

    2 Min Read

    The ongoing Underground Atlanta redevelopment just got a boost with the announcement of a new hotel to anchor the development.

    Real estate investment company WRS shared its vision for Underground, which includes the area being a central hub for retail, commercial as well as hotel space.

    Underground Atlanta getting hotel, housing, nightclub

    The remaking of Underground Atlanta will focus on a four-block area of downtown. A hotel, workforce housing and a nightclub are in the works.

    Here are the details on the plans for Underground Atlanta redevelopment:

    Block One: Yotel hotel being built

    On Block One, Yotel, an international hotel, will make its metro area debut. The space will include YotelPAD on the nearly 2-acre site.

    In addition to hotels abroad, Yotel has four city-center hotels stateside in New York, Boston, San Francisco and Washington D.C..

    Block Two: Residential tower

    Filling a much-needed housing need in downtown Atlanta, Block Two will consist of a residential tower. Development plans are in the permitting phase with an estimated start date end of 2020.

    Block Three: Workforce housing 

    On Block Three, around 130 housing units geared toward the workforce will be built by Prestwick Companies.

    The workforce housing was originally planned for Block Two, but has been moved to the 3+ acre site at the southwest corner of Central and Alabama.

    The housing will feature a mix of street-level retail focused on the needs of the neighborhood and Georgia State’s growing student body.

    The development, known as The Avery, will hold around 130 units of housing with one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom options.

    Around 104 units will be set aside as affordable for families earning 60% of the area median income or below. Around 26 units will go for the market rate.

    Block Four: Future nightclub & restaurant

    On Block Four, an LGBTQ+-friendly cabaret, restaurant and dance club called Future will find its home.

    Located on the southwest corner of Pryor and Alabama, Future will be a 14,000-square-foot night club and restaurant geared toward LGBTQ+ patrons.

    Owners Keith Young and Hoosh Mishu have signed a 10-year lease and have brought on Atlanta-based professional drag queen, Phoenix, who competed on “RuPaul’s Drag Race, to lead the cabaret show.
