Veteran Real Estate Developers Team Up for Upper Westside Development in Atlanta, GA


Rendering of planned 8 Westside corporate campus,
8th and Howell Mill, Atlanta, GA


Jim Meyer
 ATLANTA, GA – In an effort to meet the city’s demand for Class A creative workspace, two veteran real estate developers are joining forces to bring 8West, located at the corner of 8th and Howell Mill, to the Upper Westside.

Developers Jim Meyer of Atlantic Capital Properties and Mack Reese of Gateway Ventures envision the space to attract technology and creative companies who will thrive in authentic, walkable and amenity-rich environments just minutes from some of the city’s top restaurants, retailers and entertainment venues.

“The timing to integrate a Class A workspace component into the retail hub of the Upper Westside could not be better,” said Meyer of Atlantic Capital Properties.

“When we worked with Gateway Ventures on the development of Centergy at Tech Square in the early 2000s, we found there was demand for space from companies who wanted to be close to the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) for their recruiting and research needs.

Mack Reese
"As Midtown has changed and the economy evolved, we now see a similar demand for space on the Upper Westside. With 8West, we have designed a project which will appeal to creative companies and individuals who value walkability and unparalleled access to the best restaurants and entertainment venues in Atlanta – a place where people want to be.

"I’m thrilled to be working with Mack and Gateway Ventures again as we aspire to bring the same connection to the west side of Georgia Tech’s campus that we brought to the east side 17 years ago.”

1600 Glenarm Place, Downtown Denver, CO

Jordan Robbins
DENVER, CO Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces the sale of 1600 Glenarm Place, an iconic, mixed-use high-rise located on the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver, Colorado.

The HFF team marketed the asset exclusively on behalf of the seller, a joint venture between RedPeak Properties and Allstate Investments, and procured the buyer, Northland Investment Corporation. The tower was purchased along with a 0.77-acre land parcel for future development located at 14th & Glenarm.

1600 Glenarm Place was originally constructed in 1967 as an office tower known as the Security Life Building and was subsequently converted in 2006 by RedPeak Properties into one of downtown Denver’s first and most prominent residential and retail mixed-use projects. 

The building comprises 333 luxury apartment units and approximately 29,000 square feet of commercial space, including premium frontage along Denver’s 16th Street pedestrian mall. 

Jeff Haag
 The 31-story building has a WalkScore® of 96 and is within walking distance of nearly 40 million square feet of office space and two blocks of light rail access. 

The residential units average approximately 980 square feet in a range of studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and penthouse layouts. 

Resident amenities include an outdoor terrace with barbecue grills and fireplace, state-of-the-art fitness center with Fitness on Demand and a yoga/Pilates studio, demonstration kitchen, cyber lounge, conference room, movie theatre, game room, resident library and reading room, valet parking, 24-hour concierge service and door-to-door room service from Earl’s Restaurant on the property’s ground floor. 

The HFF investment advisory team representing the seller included managing director Jordan Robbins and directors Jeff Haag and Anna Stevens.

“1600 Glenarm is a one-of-a-kind, legacy asset within the downtown Denver market and by far one of the most recognizable assets in the area,” Robbins said. 

Anna Stevens

“RedPeak was extremely forward-looking in 2006 with its conversion from office space into a mixed-use residential and retail building, which has allowed 1600 Glenarm to maintain its prominent image within the market since its completion.”

“Northland recognized the irreplaceable nature of this asset, which marks their entry into the Denver market," Robbins continued.  “This, coupled with their ability to implement an aggressive value-add strategy, will only serve to further the property’s position within downtown.”
