Houston-based developer Weingarten has revealed renderings for its plan to redevelop the Atlanta Civic Center site.

According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, Weingarten is negotiating with the city to buy the Civic Center property for $30 million.

Plans call for demolishing the circa-1967 building for a $300 million redevelopment with potentially 250,000 square feet of office space, 222,900 square feet of retail, a grocery store, 250 condominiums, 386 apartments and 20 townhomes. A park, amphitheater and water fountains surrounded by a wine bar and restaurants could sit at the center of the project.
