The former home of the Atlanta Eagle and its decaying neighbor next door could be the site of a new $25 million development even after portions of the existing structures are designated historic landmarks by the city.
The details of what could be developed on the site emerged Thursday as the Midtown Neighbors’ Association vetted – and ultimately gave its approval to – ordinances from the City of Atlanta designating the two properties along Ponce de Leon Avenue as landmarks.
