With its unique flatiron design, this infill project by Charleston-based Middle Street Partners—officially christened Westside Union—took shape on a previously vacant, 1.4-acre site just north of Atlantic Station’s Target in the Loring Heights neighborhood.

It was several years in the making and came together where other developments had failed to take off. And it’s an interesting enough case to warrant drone photography for the latest installment of our Aerial Tours series.

The 400 Bishop St. development stands 11 stories on land formerly zoned for heavy industrial uses, next to active Norfolk Southern railroad lines. It started construction in September 2022 and includes 274 units, ranging from one to three-bedroom apartments, according to Middle Street.

Current rents at Westside Union start at $1,535. That gets a studio in 535 square feet. Elsewhere, the largest and priciest rental option currently listed is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom space in 1,709 square feet that’s going for $4,910 monthly (and up).

Ten weeks of free rent is now being dangled as an incentive.

Several outdoor amenities areas extend from Westside Union’s north and east faces, and units along Bishop Street at ground level function as live-work properties, according to plans approved by the city in 2021.

Westside Union amenities are listed as coworking space, a two-story gym, a club room with a gaming area, and a resort-style pool, among other perks. Skyline views from the rooftop amenity spaces, meanwhile, span across Midtown to downtown and around toward Buckhead.

Other ideas hatched for the 400 Bishop St. site failed to move forward. (Ditto for a pedestrian bridge that would have been built over the adjacent railroad tracks for quicker access between Loring Heights and Atlantic Station.) Plans that emerged in 2019 by another development group, Track West Partners, called for 130,000 square feet of creative offices above retail in a shorter building. Other concepts have called for just 26,000 square feet of offices in four stories, with a “post-COVID-era wellness plan” and emphasis on city views.

The project marks the third for Middle Street in Atlanta, in addition to The Boulevard at Grant Park and the two-tower The Juniper/The Reserve at Juniper development.
