Monarch Private Capital, BNA Associates Break Ground on Hotel Clermont Redevelopment in Atlanta

ATLANTA — Atlanta-based Monarch Private Capital and Nashville-based BNA Associates have begun the redevelopment of Hotel Clermont in Atlanta’s Poncey-Highland neighborhood. The firms are renovating the iconic hotel using Historic Tax Credits. Upon opening, the new 94-room boutique hotel will feature a restaurant and some of the original hotel’s art-deco design. Monarch and BNA worked closely with the city of Atlanta and the Georgia General Assembly, which passed House Bill 308 last year, raising the maximum tax credit allowance for historic structures from $300,000 annually to $5 million. The Poncey-Highland Neighborhood Association also supported the renovation and preservation of the landmark hotel.
