Sodo Atlanta,

Seven years ago, an ambitious firm from Germany established a compelling vision, combined with strategic property acquisition and authentic community development. Years of hard work, investment, and relationship building set the stage for the revitalization of arguably the most in-tact, historic district in our cherished city – or as the 1984 Atlanta Urban Design Commision aptly named South Downtown: “The Heart of Atlanta.” A pandemic, mixed with macroeconomic headwinds, halted the strong progress, leaving the portfolio set for multiple foreclosures. We believe the neighborhood deserves better. Our city deserves better. Since the foreclosures notice, we have worked swiftly and diligently to keep the portfolio of 53 parcels including 6 acres of surface parking together and in place under our ownership. Returns and proceeds from companies started on streets we all know, Peachtree and Piedmont, are fueling the continued vision set forth nearly a decade ago. We, at SoDo Atlanta, will not let our city go backwards. Innovation, progress, and risk-taking are in our blood. It’s why we choose to call this city home. It’s why we named our investment firm after our city. Now is the time to be on the offense. An opportunity to create a safe, walkable, and livable neighborhood in the once forgotten “heart of the city” is right in front of us. Every great city in the world has a vibrant downtown, it’s Atlanta’s turn. Over the next year, we’ll be listening, learning, and designing towards a larger plan – while balancing the time constraints as the world awaits to enter our doorstep for the World Cup in the summer of 2026. Help us make it happen and join the story along the way.
