Overview
Metropolis is the building that started it all. Delivered in 2002 by the Novare Group as the developer's first high-rise project, this twin-tower condominium on Peachtree Street between 8th and 9th Streets is widely credited with sparking the residential demand that transformed Midtown Atlanta into the vibrant, walkable urban neighborhood it is today. Rising 21 stories on each side and encompassing 498 residences, Metropolis remains one of the largest condominium communities along the celebrated Midtown Mile.
Architecture and Design
The development comprises two concrete-and-steel towers, a South Tower at 923 Peachtree and a North Tower at 943 Peachtree, joined at the seventh floor by a landscaped amenity terrace. The towers share a contemporary facade characterized by floor-to-ceiling glass, a clean structural grid, and a street-level podium housing roughly 40,000 square feet of curated retail, dining, and services. At street grade, the design deliberately prioritizes the pedestrian experience with a drive-up lobby, generous sidewalks, and an active retail streetscape that contributes to Midtown's urban vitality.
Residences
Metropolis offers a range of floor plans spanning studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts from approximately 500 to 1,900 square feet. Interiors carry a contemporary, soft-industrial aesthetic with 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic city and midtown skyline views, and exposed concrete and mechanical elements that lend a loft-like character. Standard finishes include hardwood flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, maple or cherry cabinetry, walk-in closets, and private walk-out balconies. Many residences are pre-wired for surround sound, making them ready for modern entertainment systems from move-in day.
Amenities
The seventh-floor amenity terrace is the heart of community life at Metropolis. This expansive deck connects the two towers and features a resort-style saltwater swimming pool with cabana seating, a designer clubhouse, multiple gas grilling stations, and beautifully landscaped gardens. Inside, residents enjoy a well-equipped fitness center overlooking Peachtree Street, a TV and movie viewing lounge, internet workstations, a business center, and a catering kitchen and bar for private events. Twenty-four-hour concierge service attends to day-to-day needs, package management, and guest arrivals. The building's 820-space, five-level parking garage provides covered, secure parking for residents and their visitors.
