The Atlanta Housing (AH) board of commissioners expects to finally choose a master developer next month for the Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center, over four years after the housing authority bought the iconic Old Fourth Ward site, which has sat vacant for eight years.
AH officials are now interviewing a shortlist of five candidates to develop the 19-acre site, AH’s CEO, Eugene Jones, told Atlanta Civic Circle on Friday.
“They’re heavy-hitters,” Jones said of the firms bidding on the job. “They’ve got some innovative ideas.”
