Capital City Real Estate Launches The Indie Boutique Apartment Community in The Heart of Atlanta’s Popular Krog District Neighborhood

ATLANTA, GA – Capital City Real Estate announced the opening of “The Indie”, a brand-new boutique apartment community consisting of only 83 one, two and three bedroom apartments and eight stunning Penthouses, many which offer unobstructed views through 11 foot floor to ceiling glass windows of Downtown, Midtown, Buckhead, Ponce City Market and even Kennesaw and Stone Mountain.
With one of the most unique design aesthetics in the city, The Indie was inspired by the grit and arts culture of the now developing Krog District which is at the intersection of Ancient Fourth Ward, Inman Parkand the Sweet Auburn district. This site also hugs one of Atlanta’s most valuable assets – The BeltLine and more specifically – the Eastside Trail.
The historically inspired brick base was made to mirror the warehouses and buildings characteristic of Edgewood Avenue, the original route of the Atlanta Streetcar. The mural on the building “Atlanta and Edgewood Street R.R.” pays homage to the name of the original line and the large brick arches on the facade were designed with a scale that could have welcomed those early streetcars. The top of the building is a more modern structure meant to disappear into the sky while providing residents with some of the best views the city has to offer.
The atrium entrance and interiors of the building were modeled after the effortless style of boutique Indie theaters and SoHo houses around the country, giving visitors unexpected motifs and quirky winks that all seamlessly converge to make a space that encourages creativity and artistic expression. The Indie will appeal to those that want to embrace a lifestyle that celebrates individuality and originality.
With only 91 residences to provide a truly boutique experience, the Indie offers all the amenities you would expect from a new residential building including a state-of-the-art fitness center, inspiring lobby, shared workspaces and a creativity fueled communal clubroom that spills out onto a resort-style pool deck with fire pits, grilling area and a skyline view that is beyond compare. Each residence has been thoughtfully designed to blend livability, functionality and modern design including stunning kitchens, large walk-in closets and private outdoor space for every unit.
With a 93 Walk Score, 91 Bike Score and over 150 restaurants within a half mile, residents can easily explore the city and all it has to offer. You can truly live, work, eat, and play without compromise. Ultimately, The Indie is more than just an apartment community, it is a lifestyle designed for those who want to be original, inspired and embrace the eclectic and vibrant culture of Intown Atlanta.

CPP and Hampstead s total development investment is approximately $23.1M, which includes the buy price of $10.75M and an estimated per unit renovation cost of $72,850. The properties HUD subsidy was set to expire, but with CPP and Hampstead’s involvement the homes will now remain affordable and prevent displacement of residents earning 50% and 60% of AMI until 2074.
New affordable housing developments in the Fantastic Falls area have significant waitlists, so the preservation and modernization of the existing affordable housing stock is vital to the residents of this community, said Karen Buckland, Vice President at CPP.
Built in 1979 and located at 600 13th Avenue S., Sunshine Village is a senior community of 72 one- and two-bedroom units in a single three-tale building. Amenities for senior residents include a community room, library, and outdoor lawn. Shared space renovations will include the replacement of one of the building s elevator cabs, a full upgrade of the community space, and expansion of the management office.
Also built in 1979, the Broadview Manor properties are in two different locations. Both communities are designed for families, offering three- and four-bedroom units, onsite laundry facilities and uncovered open parking. Broadview Manor East, located at 720 and 724 42A Street is a three-tale, 12-unit project with an adjacent basketball court. As part of the renovation, Broadview Manor East will have new stairs installed. Broadview Manor West, located at 710 and 714 4th Avenue N.W., is a two-tale 8-unit project.
Interior renovations will take place in all the units with a focus on sustainability, including installation of new low-VOC vinyl plank flooring, and formaldehyde-free cabinets and counters. Upon completion, the homes will include energy efficient upgrades, such as Energy Star rated appliances, LED lighting fixtures, low-VOC paint, and low flow plumbing fixtures. Sunshine Village will receive necessary ADA compliance upgrades.
As part of the improvements, the Fantastic Falls communities will offer free Wi-Fi and provide residents with an on-demand library of classes, available 24/7 through Rainbow Housing Help Corporation. Live instruction will also be offered, Monday through Thursday, along with monthly calendared events coordinated by an on-site staff member. Rainbow Housing will conduct a survey and assessment of the residents to determine the needs of tenants and programing of the project to ensure that the appropriate resources are being provided.
Renovations are expected to be completed in May 2024. Partners on the project include Montana Board of Housing (who awarded tax exempt bonds and 4% low-income housing tax credits), WNC is the equity partner, and Glacier Bank provided the debt.
