Fuqua Development has received the prestigious “Mixed-Use Deal of the Year” awarded as part of the Best in Atlanta Real Estate Awards sponsored by the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

• The Battery, the 381,200 square feet mixed-use component of the new Atlanta Braves stadium development which is scheduled for completion in spring 2017;

• Morningside Heights, a close to completion, six-acre project featuring 30,000 square feet of retail space and 325 high-end residential units;
• Sugarloaf Marketplace, a 31-acre mixed use project including 75,000 square feet of stores and 331 residential units;

• Glenwood Place, a 20-acre project at the front door of the trendy in-town Grant Park neighborhood featuring 175,000 square feet of retail space and 220 residential units.
In accepting this award, Jeff Fuqua stated, “The Fuqua Development success that the Atlanta Business Chronicle has recognized this year does not happen because of one person. Rather, it is the singular success of a group of Fuqua Development experts in all areas of development —from design to construction to leasing— moving together in one direction. This recognition really goes to our expert staff.”
Partner Heather Correa added, “Even as we enjoy our ongoing success and the recognition from the Business Chronicle, Fuqua Development continues to look ahead for new opportunities. Time and again we have undertaken challenging projects in the firm belief that most times the greater the challenge the greater the reward. So as we look forward to next year’s “Best in Atlanta’s Real Estate” event, we are confident that we will have new, innovative and as yet unplanned projects for award consideration.”
