ATLANTA — Master developers Majestic Realty Co. and Carter have announced plans for a $350 million mixed-use project at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Phase I of the project will include an 11-story, 440-room hotel that features a restaurant in the lobby, 80,000 square feet of conference/meeting space, a skybar on the 10th floor that overlooks the airport’s runway, 750 parking spaces and an additional 60,000 square feet of Class A office space. Visitors and hotel guests will have direct access to MARTA and the airport’s SkyTrain service. Majestic Realty and Carter are currently in discussions with InterContinental Hotels Group to serve as the operator of the four-star facility, which will be situated directly west of the domestic terminal. The hotel will be connected to the domestic terminal via a new plaza. Phase II of the project will feature two additional hotels built on 13 acres just west of Phase I. The design stage is expected to begin in 2017 with construction slated to start by early 2018. In 2015, Majestic Realty and Carter signed a 50-year lease for the 26.5-acre site with the city of Atlanta. The master development is part of the airport’s $6 billion ATLNext Initiative.
