AVALON ALPHARETTA

Situated on a 35-hectare land, Avalon is situated in Alpharetta, Georgia. It features 500,000 sq ft of retail space, a 12-screen cinema center, 105,000 sq ft of office space, 101 residential units and 250 luxury homes for rent. It is one of the largest mixed-used developments in the world that has proven to be successful in terms of occupancy and reception.

First built in 2013, Avalon was a huge draw among homeowners and visitors. As much as 98 percent of the restaurant and retail spaces were leased out by 2015. Of its tenants, 89 percent were in operation, including several international brands and restaurants. About 95 percent of the office tower was rented out. There was clamor for more spaces due to the project’s near-full occupancies.

In 2018, an expansion area called Boulevard East was added to the complex, providing 350 new residences and bringing in new jobs. The Hotel at Avalon also added luxury facilities and a conference center to the mix.

In addition, the Alpha Loop Path was opened to provide pedestrian-friendly connections to other city attractions like the Big Creek Greenway, a recreational park in Alpharetta.

Just by looking at the numbers, it would be an understatement to say that the Avalon at Alpharetta is well-received. Practically a city within a city, this community exemplifies one of the most successful cases of horizontal mixed-use developments that the world has seen in modern times.
