Emory Point rendering, Atlanta, GA

 ATLANTA (Jan. 22, 2013) – Retailers at the first phase of Emory Point, the $100+ million mixed-use project developed by Cousins Properties Incorporated (NYSE: CUZ) with Gables Residential in northeast Atlanta, are now open for business.

The project is also in the pre-development stages for Phase II, which will include an additional 40,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space.

 The development – a collaboration between Atlanta-based firms Cousins and Gables – is the first ground-up retail development in the Emory market in 20 years, and was one of the first construction projects started in Atlanta after the recession.

The 80,000-square-foot retail component of Phase I is nearly 90 percent committed, with only three spaces remaining available for lease.
