Choate Begins New $31.6M Hyatt House Hotel in North Atlanta’s Hospital District

ATLANTA, January 22, 2020 – Vertical construction has begun on the nine-story, 186-key Hyatt House Atlanta Perimeter Center, to be located in Sandy Springs, Georgia. The project fulfills a long-time need to bring lodging to Atlanta’s “Pill Hill” district and adds a Hyatt House hotel to the Legacy Ventures portfolio. The Hyatt House brand caters to extended-stay guests looking for more spacious accommodations and the comforts and conveniences of home.  Patients, families, and doctors will have an extended stay option within walking distance of Northside, St. Joseph’s and Scottish Rite Hospitals.

The site is part of a larger development which includes existing office buildings along with a proposed parking deck, restaurant and retail spaces. The area to be developed for the hotel is approximately 1.5 acres (+/-) of the overall campus.

“Choate is honored to be involved with Legacy Ventures. We take sincere pride in working with developers who have a knack for generating notable hotel and hospitality construction projects that marry business growth, community connectivity, and an improved end-user experience,” said Ben Bunyard, Atlanta Division Manager at Choate Construction.

“Most notably, this project will allow families whose loved ones are seeking medical care from some of Atlanta’s finest medical institutions to stay within walking distance of multiple medical facilities and the Medical Center Marta Station,” Britton Miles, Senior Project Manager with Choate Construction.

President and Founder of Legacy Ventures, David Marvin is “looking forward to meeting the lodging needs of the medical district. Legacy Ventures provides more than great buildings and superior service; we are members of our community and are dedicated to enhancing its built environment.”

Hyatt House Atlanta Perimeter Center, designed by Cooper Carry, will be landmark hotel and will represent a significant repurposing of an underutilized site in a rapidly transforming area.

“This property will also attract business travelers to the epicenter of the Sandy Springs business district,”.  Miles said.
