The Rockefeller Group and Turner Construction celebrated the topping out of 1072 West Peachtree, the 60-story mixed-use tower reshaping the Midtown Atlanta skyline.

The Nov. 7 ceremony celebrated the contributions of the construction crew by raising the final beam, signed by members of the construction crew, to the pinnacle of the tower. Officials said 1,796 unique craft laborers, 315 of whom were members of the Turner crew, representing more than 21 countries, worked over 800,000 hours on the project.

“Today is not a day to celebrate the people wearing suits, but for all of you who have actually made this happen, from busting rods to swinging tons of concrete, window walls, fuel, and equipment,” John Petricola, the Senior Managing Direction of the Southeast Region at Rockefeller Group, said. “This day is about all of you doers who have physically created something great and have left a mark on this great city, an achievement for which all of you can be proud.”

“It’s a really special group of people building a unique and special addition that’s reshaping the Midtown skyline,” Dan Cassidy, Senior Project Manager at Turner Construction, said.  

Upon its completion in spring 2026, the development will be the tallest tower built in Atlanta in more than three decades and will include 224,00 square feet of boutique office space, ground-floor retail space, and 357 luxury apartment units.

There will also be an acre of indoor and outdoor amenities like a resort-style athletic club with strength and cardio training areas, full-service locker rooms, private spa treatment rooms, sauna rooms, frost lockers, an indoor Pilates studio, a private training studio, and a Pickleball court overlooking Midtown.

The property will also feature the Sky Garden, Midtown Atlanta’s largest outdoor deck. Pre-leasing will begin soon. To learn more, visit 1072westpeachtree.com.
