PES provided the structural design of Marchon, formerly known as the King Memorial Transit Oriented Development (TOD), bordered by Atlanta’s historic Oakland Cemetery, the King Memorial MARTA Station, Grant Street, and Biggers Street.

The 370,000 square foot project consisted of 384 apartments across four stories over a parking deck podium, with a rooftop amenity deck. The units are cantilevered in an offset pattern to create interest along façades as well as more private balconies. The ground-floor streets consists of 6,800 square feet of retail space as well as a leasing office, gym, and a pool with a club room. Roughly 20% of the units are to be leased at an affordable rate.
