– Rockefeller Group and Selig Development formalize long-planned partnership agreement, advance condo sales
ATLANTA, July 15, 2020 – Selig Development, part of Selig Enterprises, one of Atlanta’s largest privately-held commercial real estate firms, and Rockefeller Group, a leading national property developer, today announced a joint venture partnership on 40 West 12th, the 64-unit luxury condominium tower rising as part of 1105 West Peachtree, the $530 million multi-tower mixed-use development under construction in Midtown Atlanta.
“This event represents an important milestone for Selig Enterprises and the 1105 West Peachtree development,” said Steve Selig, Chairman and CEO of Selig Enterprises. The announced partnership, which has been planned and in discussions since last year, joins JV equity already in place for the 675,000-square-foot office component of the project and $340 million in construction financing from Blackstone. The entire project, which will also feature The Epicurean Atlanta, a 178-key Marriott Autograph Collection hotel, and 25,000-square-feet of street-engaging retail, is rising simultaneously on a 3.5-acre city block. The project will open in 2021.
“We are full speed ahead on 40 West 12th,” said Steve Baile, Chief Operating & Development Officer of Selig Development. “I would like to applaud our partners at Rockefeller Group and our investments team led by Matt Rendle for their superb work driving this deal to completion. It’s been rewarding to watch this project transform from rendering to reality. Selig’s partnership with Rockefeller Group will serve to continue the momentum we are building at 40 West 12th and in Midtown. Our team is laser-focused on accomplishing our distinct vision for 1105 West Peachtree and Midtown as a whole.”
“Rockefeller Group always looks for projects or opportunities that have the potential to transform the day-to-day experience of a neighborhood or city through the built environment,” said John Petricola, Senior Vice President and Head of Development for Rockefeller Group throughout the Southeast. “Selig’s vision for 1105 West Peachtree and in turn 40 West 12th, presents an opportunity for us to join with an outstanding partner, in a great location, for residences that we believe will attract people who are looking for the most rewarding lifestyle experience through conscious design decisions, the nature of mixed-use project programming and the variety of amenity choices.”
As one of the nation’s most trusted names in real estate, Rockefeller Group’s investment in 40 West 12th highlights the viability of high-end condo product in Midtown’s core business district.
Priced from $800,000 to $2.2 million, residences at 40 West 12th feature a variety of high-design elements centered around a hospitality-infused lifestyle, with residents enjoying exclusive access to 24-hour concierge service, an all-season resort style pool, Epicurean Atlanta’s outdoor pool and bar, the hotel’s food and beverage menu, and more. Launching marketing efforts last year, Engel & Völkers Atlanta is overseeing sales for the project.
“40 West 12th represents a differentiated product offering in Midtown, which is gaining an elegant condo stack that bridges the gap between uneven residential sectors in the market,” said Christa Huffstickler, founder and CEO of Engel & Völkers Atlanta.
40 West 12th’s on-site presentation gallery is opening for appointments later this month. The condominium tower is scheduled to top out on the 19th floor in early August and first move-ins to the community will occur in Q3 2021.
