Metro Atlanta's latest Costco store is on track to open sooner than you might realize. Construction began in April on the new store set to anchor "Mountain Marketplace" (1915 West Park Place Blvd) in Stone Mountain.
According to the Costco website, the new store is expected to open in August! Joining the roughly 150,000 square foot Costco in the new project are freestanding locations of Chick-fil-A, Whataburger, a bank, and a park, as well as a new 248 unit apartment community from Greystar.
The roughly 31 acre project also includes some land previously part of a former Super Target turned storage facility next door. Mountain Marketplace is located just off US 78 and a stone's throw from the popular Netherworld Halloween attraction.
The new Costco will mark the Issaquah, Washington-based retailer's newest store in the greater metro Atlanta area since the November 2023 opening at The Bridges at Jodeco in Stockbridge. The company also in recent years added new stores in Pooler (11/2021) and Athens (11/2022). Overall, the company currently operates sixteen traditional warehouse clubs in the state along with one "Business Center" in Morrow.
Costco is one of the most productive and profitable companies in the world, having reported sales of nearly $270 billion in fiscal 2025, with average sales per warehouse at roughly $276 million.
Mountain Marketplace is being developed by Jeff Fuqua and his Fuqua Development. Fuqua previously led The Sembler Co in Atlanta during which time he developed the Costco-anchored TOWN Brookhaven project in Brookhaven in 2010.

Yeah!! I’m so happy you are opening a new one.
I’m a member of Costco and super excited that’s it’s coming, I would like to see more restaurants instead of fast food stores in the development plans
Fuqua is the worst. His Shopping centers are boring and middle of the road. They look old as soon as they open the door. Is like that company has no creativity. They are stuck in the Brady bunch age. Wish they would stop developing and close up the store.
Please ensure parking and traffic flow is well thought out. Brookhaven Costco is a nightmare
