3107 Sylvan Road Development Team:
We are excited to announce the transformative redevelopment of the 3107 Sylvan Road property, a 55-acre site formerly home to a glass bottle manufacturing facility. This project represents a unique opportunity to reimagine the space as a vibrant mixed-use destination that will serve as a hub for creative and technology industries, supported by hospitality, and residential living, while also addressing the site’s current safety and environmental concerns.
Possible Key Features of the Vision:
• Creative Production Facility: Next generation hub for content, technology, and other creative industries, aimed at fostering innovation and regional growth.
• Hospitality and Residential Elements: The site could feature a hotel, meeting spaces, and a mix of housing options for community members and short-term guests.
• Community-Focused Spaces: A public area to serve as a destination for entertainment, dining, and shopping, attracting both local and regional visitors.
• Sustainability and Safety: Potential plans include green spaces and addresses stormwater management, and demolishing unsafe, deteriorated buildings.
Site Highlights:
• Located adjacent to I-85 and near Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the site offers exceptional accessibility and potential for regional impact.

Collaboration and Community Input:
The development team, led by partners Mikey Cosentino and Austin McDonald of McDonald Development Co., are committed to working closely with the cities of East Point and Hapeville as well as the local community throughout the process. Future public meetings will provide opportunities for residents to share input and learn more about the evolving plans.
Next Steps:
