Ralph David Abernathy Boulevard

Atlanta, GA

A 16-unit fee-simple townhome community on a 0.67-acre infill site near the BeltLine's Westside Trail, with inclusionary affordable units and three-story buildings that step down to meet the neighboring residential scale.

AI-driven site analysis identified capacity for 16 townhomes on a parcel that conventional planning had sized for eight or nine, nearly doubling the yield without pushing beyond the existing zoning envelope. The site is zoned C-1-C with a BeltLine Overlay, allowing townhomes by right, and an affordable housing bonus supports the density at a 0.8004 FAR. Three-story buildings step down to 35 feet along the northern boundary to match the adjacent residential scale.

The unit mix pairs market-rate homes with units reserved at 80% of Area Median Income, meeting Atlanta’s inclusionary zoning requirements. Smart home technology, energy-efficient systems, and flexible layouts designed for intergenerational living run across all units regardless of price point. The AI-driven design workflow cut design time by roughly 60% and design costs by about 20% while maintaining 95%+ code compliance accuracy, keeping the inclusionary program feasible on a tight infill site.
