500+ apartments proposed for
long-vacant south Cobb property
By: Hunter Riggall
AUSTELL — e South
Cobb Redevelopment
Authority unveiled plans
in December to build 557
aordable housing units at
the site formerly occupied
by the blighted Magnolia
Crossing apartments,
which were razed in 2016.
e property has been
vacant for years, and the
slow pace of redevelopment
has irritated residents.
If all goes to plan, over
the next few years new
apartments would be built,
complemented by a new
Cobb and Douglas Public
Health facility, said former
Dominium’s plans for the former
Magnolia Crossing property include
building more than 500 aordable
housing apartments, using about 32 of
the property’s 51 acres. - Dominium
state Sen. Doug Stoner, who chairs the redevelopment
authority.
e reaction among attendees of a December town hall
was mixed. While some welcomed new housing stock
in an area ush with run-down apartments, many were
disappointed that the authority was not rolling out plans
for a transformational mixed-use development, as had been
oated in the past.
e authority is under contract with developer
Dominium to sell approximately 32 of the 51 acres it owns
at 490 Riverside Parkway for $4.8 million, pending site plan
approval by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners
and Dominium’s securing of federal aordable housing tax
credits. Dominium would invest about $140 million into the
project, representatives for the company said.
