40 West 12th, a new modern residential tower that is a central component of Midtown Atlanta’s new mixed-use development 1105 West Peachtree, has opened to its first residents. The 64-unit project features a glass and concrete facade, two- to four-bedroom layouts, upscale finishes, indoor and outdoor amenities, and panoramic views of the city.
The Rule Joy Trammell + Rubio-designed building includes high-contrast accents, sleek lines, and organic materials. The lobby provides a warm welcome atmosphere with dark, rich finishes, silk-clad walls, and cove-lit stone. The lobby-lounge includes furnishings, a custom chandelier of gold and silver teardrops, and a feature wall that conceals the mailroom.
An amenity level is located on the ninth floor where all three buildings of the development connect. It was designed to reflect the human experience of the street and communal green space. An outdoor deck, dubbed the Sky Terrace, includes a shared event lawn, a hotel pool and bar, and resident-only grilling stations and lounge areas. Next to the Sky Terrace is an indoor-outdoor residents lounge. The lounge features floor-to-ceiling glass, an operable awning bar window, high ceilings, and a TV wall. Other resident amenities include a private fitness center with a yoga studio and a private all-season pool with retractable glass walls.
Units will range in price from $800,000 to approximately $2.2 million. 40 West 12th is being co-developed by Selig Development and Rockefeller Group.
