Pullman Flats

Atlanta’s economic development approved tax breaks for the transformation of historic Pullman Yards, paving the way for Atomic Entertainment to acquire the former warehouse with the end goal of developing a creative arts campus. The former sugar and fertilizer plant, which later became a rail yard, has become a local destination called Pullman Flats with office buildings, retail, restaurants, performing arts spaces, residential units, and a luxury hotel. Additionally, Pullman Yards will cater to Atlanta’s bustling film and television industry with a new soundstage.

Seeking to complement the redevelopment of Pullman Yards and surrounding neighborhoods, ITP Development Partners commissioned McMillan Pazdan Smith to guide the entitlement process and create a project that further enhances the area’s live, work, and play appeal. This mixed-use development includes ground level retail and second level office space with residential above.

To make this project a reality, our team worked with the City of Atlanta to rezone the property for mixed-use. Originally proposed as a modern, five-story building with a strong street presence, the resulting design based on community input meetings and development with ITP is a tiered building form that steps up as the façade pushes back from the street. The project added additional height and includes six levels with amazing skyline views and shared, rooftop greenspace.

Situated on less than an acre, the 91,200 SF development includes 60 units, embedded parking with 63 spaces, and 19,200 SF dedicated to office and retail.
