Sanctuary Residential Breaks Ground on $33M Student Housing Project Near Georgia State University

ATLANTA — Sanctuary Residential has begun construction on 200 Edgewood, a $33 million student housing development located across the street from Georgia State University (GSU) in downtown Atlanta’s MLK Landmark district. According to Sanctuary Residential, the mixed-use urban infill property will be the closest student housing to GSU, including the school’s dormitories. 200 Edgewood will be situated on 1.2 acres near the Grady/Children’s Hospital Medical Complex and the new Sweet Auburn Curb Market streetcar station. The 144-unit, 254-bed community is designed to appeal to GSU students, as well as medical interns, nurses and doctors. The property’s amenity package will include a clubhouse, fitness center, meeting/study areas, central courtyard, 110 parking spaces and 12,000 square feet of commercial space. Sanctuary Residential plans to deliver 200 Edgewood by July 2016. The design team includes architect Gary Coursey & Associates, engineer Eberly & Associates and general contractor Shell McElroy. Asset Campus Housing will manage the property upon completion.
