I drove down Mountain Ind. just last week and noticed the area does seem to look a lot better. The new QT, McDonalds and NTB seem like decent additions along with some upgraded landscaping from the CID.<br /> <br />I also was surprised that The Rise was denied. Does anyone know if this is just some sort of negotiating tactic or does the City Council simply not want this project? I realize there are lots of issues to be worked through like traffic, sewer, exact price of the homes/condos/apartments, etc. but it seemed like a good idea. I suppose one concern might be can the City of Tucker actually support that much new retail/office space or might the new development simply hijack existing businesses resulting in even more empty retail space around the city. <br />Hamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-44824873488452481652017-09-01T19:52:38.657-04:002017-09-01T19:52:38.657-04:00This Hardee's should do well.

It should be easier to get in and out at that location south of 78 since businesses have more land around them as opposed to the crowded corridor north of 78 on Mountain Industrial. <br /><br />Another development in the works for that area is a 20-pump Speedway gas station at the corner of Mountain Industrial and East Ponce de Leon.<br /><br />I would like to see the Ethiopian church property across Mountain Industrial from the new Hardee's be redeveloped. It was an old car dealership with a huge mostly unused parking lot.<br /><br />I'm not sure what the council members didn't like about The Rise proposal. I think it was a big missed opportunity.
