Ellsworth Industrial Boulevard's 8.54-acre mixed-use rezoning wins council approval

Atlanta City Council approved mixed residential-commercial zoning for 8.54 acres at 1425 and 1475 Ellsworth Industrial Boulevard NW Oct. 5, according to draft action minutes. Ordinance 26-O-1385, case Z-26-33, passed 11–0.

The change replaces heavy-industrial and conditional multifamily designations with MRC-3 zoning, retaining the Beltline and Upper Westside overlays. Crescent Acquisitions, LLC is the applicant. The minutes record NPU D's denial recommendation, alongside favorable staff and Zoning Review Board recommendations.

Council also adopted the connected comprehensive-plan amendment placing the properties entirely in the High Density Mixed Use development pattern. These are zoning and planning decisions; the minutes do not establish a particular home count, building design or construction start.
