In what’s been coined Atlanta’s Upper Westside, the transition of industrial properties to retail, brewery, and residential hubs is continuing in a significant way this fall.

After launching construction in late 2022, the BRYKS Upper Westside project has begun pre-leasing at 2200 Marietta Boulevard for what will be nearly 600 apartments spread across two buildings, marking another example of large-scale investment in a corridor linking Atlanta’s Westside to the Chattahoochee River and beyond.

The BRYKS project is a Class A joint venture between global real estate firm Golub & Company, Atlanta-based commercial real estate company AB Capital, and Atlanta entrepreneur Thierry François, among others. It features two distinct apartment buildings joined by a common plaza, and it marks Golub’s debut in the Atlanta market.

Described in marketing materials as a “next-generation luxury residential experience,” the Lord Aeck Sargent-designed complex will include 576 apartments when both phases finish. Another facet will be 12,000 square feet of retail designed to create “an activated streetscape,” per project officials. (We’ve asked for an update on retail leasing and will update this story with any additional information that comes.) [UPDATE: 6:29 p.m., Oct. 14: A project representative sends the following: "We have not yet signed any retail leases but are actively working with Bridger Properties to source excellent tenant options for the property."]

The least expensive rental option currently listed at BRYKS is $1,630 monthly, which gets a second-floor studio with 788 square feet.

The priciest rental—a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with 1,234 square feet—is asking $3,185 monthly on the top floor, the seventh.

Both options are available beginning Nov. 1. Two months of free rent is being offered as a move-in incentive this year. 

Onsite amenities at BRYKS include a pet spa, dog park, a rooftop lounge, private conference rooms, coworking suites described as “luxe,” a fitness center with a cycling and yoga studio, and a tucked-away, resort-style pool.

Westside Park, Scofflaw Brewing, Top Golf, The Works, Westside Village, the Beltline corridor, PATH Foundation connecting trails, and Publix-anchored Moores Mill Center have all been cited by project officials as nearby attractions.

Michael Newman, Golub’s president and CEO, said in a project update that Atlanta's “influx of new residents and… strong demand for high-quality multifamily communities” convinced his company to move forward with the “centrally located [project] in one of Atlanta’s most sought-after neighborhoods.”
