whistler
Atlanta, Georgia


 

Summary
When you can’t build out, build up. This thoughtfully considered tower rises up 25 stories to take full advantage of its half-acre footprint. The site for this luxury off-campus student housing may be small but the design and amenities, including a roof-top pool with panoramic views, are supersized. The unique palette of materials makes for an arresting façade for the 168-unit high-rise, which features studio, one-, two-, three- four, and five-bedroom -bedroom configurations, underground parking, 1,720 sf of retail space and two floors dedicated to the clubhouse, fitness center, study rooms, bike lockers and other options for comfortable, fun living. Whistler, at 859 Spring Street, is the latest addition to Tech Square, Midtown Atlanta’s hub for startups, tech companies and research centers, and an easy walk to Georgia Tech, restaurants, and retail shopping.
