MARTA to host groundbreaking for $25 million “Trackside” development

MARTA officials will host a groundbreaking ceremony on May 10 for a $25 million Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in Chamblee.

MARTA GM/CEO Keith Parker will be joined by Chamblee Mayor Eric Clarkson and Larry Callahan of Patillo Industrial Real Estate at the Chamblee MARTA Station for the 3 p.m. ceremony.

The groundbreaking commemorates the Authority’s latest Transit Oriented Development (TOD). Named ‘Trackside” for its proximity to the adjacent rail station, the project marks MARTA’s third TOD currently under construction.

The 2.16-acre site, developed by Parkside Partners and Pattillo Industrial Real Estate, will include two buildings with approximately 70,000 square-feet of office space, 10,000 square-feet of retail space and 4,300 square-feet of greenspace.

Located at the intersection of Peachtree Road and Chamblee Tucker Road, the project is scheduled to be complete in spring 2018.
