In the News: In Southside neighborhood, a new model for development on the BeltLine
South of downtown Atlanta, an old trucking terminal sat undisturbed for years as a historic neighborhood started to change around it.
Today, the old terminal is filled with 101 offices, coworking spaces, and a community event area.
It’s called Pittsburgh Yards®, a mixed-use development that will eventually span 31 acres off University Avenue along the BeltLine in southwest Atlanta.
But unlike many other projects that set a goal of revitalizing communities that have endured decades of disinvestment, the primary developers and investors behind Pittsburgh Yards aren’t looking to make a profit.
