Introduction B to

uckhead

“The Beverly Hills of the East.” Buckhead is, indeed, an exceptional place. It is a community that shines with vitality and vision. • Buckhead is one of the country’s largest urban mixed - use development areas, combining major offices, retail outlets, hotels, restaurants, entertainment spots, and high-rise residential units within its commercial core. And closely surrounding its bustling business center, beneath a community-wide tree canopy, are serene and stable neighborhoods. • Buckhead is a city by every definition except incorporation. Everything is here… and everyone is welcome. It’s a great place to visit, to play, to work, to live. It’s such a major part of Atlanta that if you don’t know Buckhead, you don’t know Atlanta!

Silver Anniversary

Buckhead Coalition Celebrates Its Silver Anniversary In 2013

n September of 1988, Charlie Loudermilk, founder of Aaron Rents, reasoned that those with an interest in the well-being of the Community of Buckhead, should not take its progress and prosperity for granted. Urban centers throughout America were having trouble meeting financial support for local services and facility operations. He called together a dozen of his business friends and created an organization of leaders who were willing to put their money where it was needed. To mold the strength it would need to command recognition in the halls of government, they decided the membership would be limited to seventy-five chief executive officers of major area firms, by invitation, with individual dues of $5,000. [It wasn’t long before the roster was at capacity and the organization’s popularity increased the number to one-hundred and the dues to $6,250.] Its mission, one that would allow broad involvement was adopted to “Nurture the quality of life of those to live, visit, work, and play in Buckhead”, and an executive was recruited by the headhunting firm Korn Ferry to draft the bylaws, set-up the offices, and manage the operation on a full-time basis. This was Sam Massell, a Realtor and former Mayor of Atlanta. Now twenty-five years later, the Coalition is heralding the first quarter-of-a-century with measures to provide a legacy for those ahead to emulate. The first order of

President Sam Massell

business as 2013 approached was to hold a “President’s Luncheon” to thank the founders and former chairmen, with an engraved silver pocketknife and a booklet listing one-hundred-and-eighty different initiatives undertaken to-date, to serve as a primer of ideas for others to copy. And, showing further support of other groups, the Coalition has sponsored a Jack Davis “Buck” sculpture called the “Buckhead Boy”. As part of its anniversary, gifts to those in attendance at the Coalition’s Annual Luncheon Meeting, even included a fifth of craft whiskey to toast the benchmark, and the Keynoter was nationally renowned comedian Jeff Foxworthy! Shortly, details will be outlined for a leadership program for twenty-five-year-olds with civic, political, and business elements, plus distribution of a gift item for the forty neighborhoods that make up Buckhead. In addition, a multi-page community feature will run in GeorgiaTrend Magazine, and coverage is being given by Atlanta Business Chronicle Newspaper, BuckHaven Magazine, Buckhead Patch Internet News, Buckhead Reporter Newspaper, BuckheadView Internet News, GO Magazine, Northside Neighbor Newspaper, Simply Buckhead Magazine, Southeast Real Estate Magazine, and others.

Buckhead Coalition Purpose & Structure

he Buckhead Coalition is an organization of business and civic leaders, mutually interested in nurturing the quality of life in this community. Its purpose is to plan and implement action programs for continued improvement of Buckhead as an integral part of the corporate city of Atlanta. The longrange program is to assist in coordinating an orderly growth, balancing the residential and commercial interests of the Community. Buckhead Coalition staff [l to r] Linda MuszynskiThe Buckhead Coalition Compton, Garth Peters, and Patricia Robbins preparing works closely with all new Buckhead Guidebook.

governmental units and interchanges information with other citizens’ groups. It exercises a formal relationship with the Buckhead Business Association through interlocking board members. Membership is by invitation limited to 100 chief executive officers of major Buckhead firms or others having a pronounced commitment to the area, plus selected affiliate and ex officio members. There is no discrimination based on race, sex, religion, age, or nationality. Interested persons may request a Membership Application form from its offices at 3340 Peachtree, Suite 560, Atlanta, GA 30326. It was incorporated August 30, 1988 and assesses annual dues of $6,250 per member. It is exempt from federal income taxation as a not-for-profit civic association under Section 501 (c) (4) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is under the leadership of Sam Massell, president, and John G. Morris, Chairman.

History of Buckhead

iNTRODUCTION

uckhead’s history has the area first occupied by Cherokee and Creek Indian tribes of farmers, hunters, traders, and warriors. By the 1820’s, however, they had “sold off” to the white man most of their lands, which were subsequently occupied by Andrew Jackson’s military.

In 1838, it is recorded that Henry Irby of South Carolina purchased 203 acres in what is now the center of Buckhead for $650. He built a combination tavern and grocery store near the intersection of Peachtree and Paces Ferry where Charlie Loudermilk Park is located (formerly Triangle Park). First tagged “Irbyville,” it took on the popular designation of “Buckhead” around 1838 when the head of a large buck killed in nearby woods was mounted on a post not far from the tavern. The area was annexed to the city of Atlanta in 1952. Over the years, Buckhead has led the way for the economic well-being of this region. As early as the 1960’s, Fortune magazine described it as “the top encampment of business executives in the Southeast.” Buckhead real estate development milestones include Lenox Square, the largest shopping center in the Southeast, 1959, followed shortly by the ultraplush Phipps Plaza; Tower Place, a 600-thousandsquare-foot office building, 1974, which started the high-rise skyline; the Ritz-Carlton, the flagship for this luxury hotel chain, 1984, which led the way for a community of deluxe accommodations; and Park Place, the nation’s largest single-purpose condominium building, 1986, now one of many pedestrian-oriented multifamily properties encircling the business core.

Boundaries of Buckhead

In addition to this Buckhead community in the city of Atlanta, there is a city of Buckhead, GA—home of the Steffen Thomas Museum & Archives—approximately 55 miles east off Interstate 20 with a population of 226.

For a complete, detailed history, we recommend Buckhead, A Place For All Time by Susan K. Barnard, (www.unibook.com, $24.95, hardcover, 6” x 9”, 316 pages), limited availability at area bookstores and from the publisher. For a visual companion to that history, we suggest Buckhead by Susan K. Barnard (Arcadia Publishing, $21.99, paperback, 6½ x 9¼,128 pp), limited availability at area bookstores and from the publisher. For a contemporary pictorial overview, we suggest Buckhead, Atlanta’s First Address by Jan Hickel (Indigo Custom Publishing, $44.95, hardcover, 9 1/4” x 12 1/4”, 160pp) limited availability at area bookstores and from the publisher.

he official boundaries of the Buckhead Community (adopted in 1982 by the Buckhead Business Association, in 1988 by the Buckhead Coalition, in 1990 by the Georgia House of Representatives, and in 1991 by the Atlanta Regional Commission) include that portion of north Atlanta bounded by the city limits/DeKalb County line on the east; the city limits line on the north; the city limits/Cobb County line on the west, and Peachtree Creek from the Chattahoochee River to Interstate 75, Interstate 75 to Interstate 85, and Interstate 85 to DeKalb County on the south. These boundaries were designed with assistance from the Geography Department of Georgia State University using major landmarks and, more importantly, incorporating U.S. Census tracts then numbered 90, 91, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, and 100. Having the resource of this database, of course, is of significant importance in planning efforts and other statistically related programs. The total area contains approximately 28 square miles and is about 4 miles from Atlanta’s central downtown.

The Buckhead Brand iNTRODUCTION

uckhead has its own flag. Commissioned by the Buckhead Coalition, it is intended to foster a sense of community for those who live, visit, work and play in this northern hub of Atlanta. Designed pro bono by the renowned architect Cecil Alexander (who was the chief artist for the 2001 Georgia flag), this new community flag’s base color is green, representing the lush tree canopy covering its neighborhoods. In the center is a pentagonal shape taken from the leather segments covering soccer balls, acknowledging this popular sport of Buckhead children. Within the design is a buck’s head in two colors indicating the diversity of this community, its homes, its people, its businesses, its occupants, its street patterns, and its architecture, all favorably impacting the city of Atlanta. On either side of the buck are white dogwood sprays to reflect the glory of these trees spreading throughout the area, bursting into bloom in the early spring. Along the bottom is the word BUCKHEAD.

ociety editors describe this community as posh, aristocratic, blue-blood, silk stocking. One visitor’s guide even combined these last two into “blue-stocking” ... a description of “scholarly women” according to Webster. Civic leaders, however, are quick to provide census data reporting a diverse economic profile. A healthy mixture is also evident in age and other characteristics.

representing “the largest concentration of income and buying power to be found in the southern United States.”

Cab drivers know this northern part of Atlanta for the fine restaurants and places of entertainment. Tour guides take visitors to the Atlanta History Center and Museum, the Governor’s Mansion, clustered decorative arts showrooms, and a shopper’s utopia. No introduction is complete, however, without a ride through the beautiful tree-lined roads of stately homes on rolling lands.

Buckhead has approximately 23,000,000 square feet of office space, 5,275 hotel rooms, an estimated 1,400 retail outlets, over 300 dining places, close to 28,975 multifamily units, and 17,968 individual homes. In each category, it most often enjoys the highest occupancy rates in the city.

Buckhead is, indeed, a collection of neighborhoods surrounding a major business core - commercial structures that provide the amenities of convenient dining, shopping, entertainment, employment, and rapid transit. A University of Georgia study described Buckhead as a consumer market

This business center has been defined by Georgia Trend magazine as a “suburban downtown,” and by Washington Post author Joel Garreau as an “edge city.” This is dramatically evident from its separate skyline of office buildings, hotels, high-rise condominiums, and apartment towers.

Buckhead is also a center for religious activity. Among the many faiths represented are the largest Presbyterian congregation and the largest Episcopal church in the United States. In addition, there are over 4,000 units in 21 retirement community developments within a wide price range.

you can be in the beauty, the comfort, and the excitement of a place like Buckhead, and yet be only a few miles from central downtown Atlanta and “limited-access, multi-lane” convenience to its international airport. Here you have open spaces, exciting entertainment, and diversified dining; you can spend a day in the History Center, tour beautiful residential areas, and “shop ‘til you drop.” You will feel safe and welcome. - - - Look around and you’ll find many visitors from other parts of Atlanta who come here to dine, travelers from other cities in Georgia who are here to shop, and people from around the country and around the world here on business. - - - Can you believe eight luxury hotels in one suburban area?

THE “WEST VILLAGE”

An area of mostly local retailers, restaurants, and bars. In the few blocks bounded by West Paces Ferry, Roswell and Andrews, we have a real hidden treasure unknown to the casual visitor. It’s an historic and eclectic shopping destination with its array of quaint shops, galleries, restaurants, bars and other businesses.

This district has a real “village” atmosphere, artfully combining the beauty and tradition of the Old South with the needs of sophisticated style seekers, offering something for everyone. There’s clothing, accessories, jewelry, lingerie, furnishings, antiques, and more. There are also two dozen establishments that have alcohol licenses.

So Buckhead has bragging rights for yet another dimension -- a “village” with which not many are familiar. It’s right in the heart of Buckhead, yet it’s hidden away, waiting to be discovered. It’s the twenty-four-hour part of Atlanta that young and old will enjoy, with delightful “mom and pop” businesses, safe, orderly and sensible nightlife, and convenience of location at the triangle Charlie Loudermilk Park. This is where the community came into being about one hundred and seventy-four years ago when the name changed from Irbyville to Buckhead, when a trophy buck’s head became the meeting place of friends.

Hospitality Highway BUCKHEAD IS THE GATEWAY TO THE HOSPITALITY HIGHWAY

By Sam Massell, President, Buckhead Coalition

Tourism

y now readers have probably spotted one or more of the “Hospitality Highway” signs on the “loop” Lenox Road, Interstate 85, and on Georgia 400. This is the latest official designation of the GA 400 corridor by the State of Georgia as a special area for tourist enjoyment. This limited access highway runs from Atlanta sixty miles north to Dahlonega and, indeed, is filled with opportunity for highway travelers. It starts in the southeastern corner of Buckhead near I-85 and Sidney Marcus Boulevard, and extends through six additional communities: Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Cumming/Forsyth, Dawsonville, and Dahlonega. Buckhead’s involvement is sponsored by the Buckhead Hotel Council with coordination by the Buckhead Coalition. The other partners are the Convention & Visitors Bureaus in the respective areas. In addition to a free four-color map brochure that includes the Buckhead skyline on the cover, we also list attractions and all hotels along the way. The group even has an interactive web site – www.hospitalityhighway.com – on which a recorded narration describes matters of special interest at each exit. With state help and funding along the route, mutual marketing will benefit all of the partners. Buckhead’s membership is particularly valuable because of its growing tourism impact. Here, we have over 5,200 hotel rooms, around 1,400 retail stores, almost 300 restaurants, 65 art galleries, and more for visitors, plus the Atlanta History Center with its museums and gardens. Buckhead’s hotels have year after year led the other Atlanta quadrants in hotel occupancy on week-ends. This is generated by the abundant shopping opportunities, with a recorded forty percent of sales coming from more than one hundred miles away! Thus our community becomes a destination for many from surrounding cities and nearby states, and this is expected to further increase when the new “Buckhead - Atlanta” development at Peachtree and Paces Ferry Roads is completed. It goes without saying that having attractions alone is not enough, and we all know to encourage an attitude that pleases the visitor, including service with a smile. The end result is not only an economic benefit to our tourist businesses, but the positive image we extend helps attract new residents and new investments for our mutual benefit. The “Hospitality Highway” starts here and operates 24/7! Welcome, one and all.

Trolley Service Our “PEACH” Route 110 -Atlanta’s only “Trolley” Service connecting Buckhead through Midtown to Downtown along the Peachtree Corridor.

Today, one can board a bus on Peachtree Road and travel between the Community of Buckhead and Central Downtown Atlanta without having to transfer! When the city’s public transportation system (MARTA) was started in the early seventies, it was planned that all bus service would be routed to MARTA rail stations, thus the Downtown Peachtree bus and the Buckhead Peachtree bus went to the Arts Center Station in Midtown, where riders would have to transfer to the other bus if wishing to continue on to the next community.

Since then, there has been such extensive development along the Peachtree corridor of retail establishments, high-rise offices, multifamily and hotel buildings that the demand for greater and easier mobility has changed, and adding the new “Peach” bus was an idea whose time had come. So it was, that the heads of Atlanta Regional Commission Transit Planning Board, Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, Metropolitan Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, Atlanta Convention and Visitors Bureau, DeKalb County Commission, Fulton County Commission, City of Atlanta, Central Atlanta Progress, Midtown Alliance, Buckhead Coalition and Buckhead Area Transportation Management Association all agreed such connectivity was needed, and now. MARTA’s “Peach” buses operate from 4:45AM to 1AM, seven days a week, for a fare of $2.50 (all MARTA riders are required to have a valid MARTA Breeze Card with the appropriate fare). Stops to take-on or let off passengers are provided at designated MARTA bus stops and MARTA one-day unlimited use Breeze Cards are available for $9. Other fare options are available.

The “Peach” is a relaxed way to visit some of the city’s major venues -- Lenox Square, InterContinental Hotel, Cathedral of St. Philip, Piedmont Hospital, Masonic Temple, Amtrak Station, Rhodes Hall, High Museum of Art, Margaret Mitchell House, Fox Theatre, AmericasMart, Central Public Library, Underground Atlanta, and much more. The “Peach” is proudly powered by clean natural gas. 30

A facade easement consists of a historic building’s exterior donated to a nonprofit organization, such as Easements Atlanta, Inc. Putting an easement on a historic property is a way to ensure its preservation in perpetuity. A facade easement may provide tax benefits to the owner of the property. The deduction the taxpayer is entitled to is equal to the fair market value of the easement, and can be deducted from income tax. Donation of an easement can also lower inheritance taxes. In an easement agreement, an owner commits to preserving the property’s historic appearance. This includes maintaining the property, obtaining written permission from the organization that holds the easement for any exterior alterations, and refraining from demolition. Facade easements in Buckhead include: • The Alhambra, 2855 Peachtree Road, NW. Constructed in 1927, the Alhambra Apartments were built in the Moorish style popular during the early twentieth century. The building is located in the heart of Buckhead along Peachtree Street. It was rehabilitated as apartments in 1985 and refurbished into luxury condominiums in 2005. • Crestwood, 2840 Peachtree Road, NW. Currently a condominium complex, Crestwood was built in 1928 by Gardner Spencer Associates as “The Canton Apartments.” Constructed in the English Renaissance style, it is significant architecturally as an example of apartment dwellings in the 1920’s that did not adhere to the common style of the garden apartment facing a courtyard.

Buckhead had about a 10% increase in its commercial space in recent years, when much of the country was pulling back. The reason: we have access to the Interstate Highway system (and the rest of the world) through the extension of Georgia Highway 400 as the entrance to our community. • Buckhead is also a haven for entrepreneurs. Inc. Magazine in 1994 identified Buckhead as the community with “the greatest concentration of small companies anywhere in the U.S.” • The national report, “Emerging • Trends in Real Estate 2001” by Lend Lease Real Estate Investment and PricewaterhouseCoopers, describes Buckhead as one of the “nation’s best subcities.” • Come on in, the opportunity is fine.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more of the country’s best, brightest, and youngest gravitated to Atlanta from 1995 to 2000 than to any other East Coast city. The U.S. Census Bureau also reports 75% of Buckhead residents (over 25 years of age) have a bachelor’s degree or more, compared to close to 25% statewide, and around 35% at the regional level. 95% have a high school degree or more. University of Georgia demographer Doug Bachtel noted, “It’s sort of a happening place. You’ve got clubs. You’ve got jazz. You’ve got Buckhead.”

Economic Development

OFFICE SPACE DEVELOPMENT Buckhead’s office building skyline is a jewel of Atlanta and certainly sets the pace for the region’s economy. Its growth history incorporating absorption, development, occupancy, rental, vacancy and other factors spells a success story of interest to developers, tenants, brokers and investors. Because of ongoing improvements, the Buckhead Coalition with the expertise of the Research Department of Jones Lang LaSalle has published a separate Study (dated Jan. 30, 2013) available free on request. As conditions warrant, it is anticipated updated versions of the Office Development Study Pamphlet will be produced.

In Merriam Websterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Collegiate Dictionary, con-do-min-i-um is defined as: individual ownership of a unit in a multiunit structure or on land owned in common; also a unit so owned. Thus, a condo can be an apartment, an office, a store, a hotel room (and, in Athens, GA, even a parking space).

Buckhead Blueprint a look into the future

uckhead has received high marks by every index, and is certainly a success story recognized around the country. A book of facts like this Guidebook can tell you where we have been and where we are, but it’s imperative if the quality of the community is to be maintained that the future not be taken for granted. Enter the “Buckhead Blueprint,” a quarter-of-a-million dollar, year-long, professional study of this community’s land use, traffic management, public safety, environment, and other factors affecting the lifestyle of those who visit for a day or spend a lifetime. This book contains over five dozen recommendations, many of which have been completed or are now being implemented. Parks, pedestrian-friendly initiatives, and neighborhood preservation are the cornerstones of this long-range plan. It is a conceptual framework with parameters in which business and residential interests can work together. Proposals include new streetscapes, pedestrian plazas, a people mover system, public and private school support, emergency public phones, increased multifamily high-rises, international signage, expanded sidewalks, and a new police precinct station. One of the long-range plans is a proposed four-acre park in the middle of the Buckhead Village. Called Buckhead Square, it is envisioned as a focal point for community activities and a key landmark for Buckhead. The report sets forth estimated costs, possible methods of financing, and a tentative time schedule extending out about twenty years. Copies of the study can be obtained from the Buckhead Coalition at a cost of $10 plus $3 shipping and handling, or can be reviewed at the public library.

Buckhead Community Improvement District T

Economic Development

he Buckhead Community Improvement District is an area of major office, hotel, and retail developments that have agreed to self-imposed taxes for mobility, streetscapes, public safety, and other improvements. These business properties annually pay into the program around $3.0-million, which is leveraged with grants from other governmental entities. The original CID (shown in green on the map) was created by the Buckhead Coalition in early 1999. The expansion (shown in red) was adopted in mid 2005, with the help of the Buckhead Alliance. The combined area includes Peachtree Rd. from Sheridan Dr. northeast to Roxboro Rd.; Paces Ferry Rd. from E. Andrews Dr. east to Piedmont Rd., and Piedmont Rd. from Peachtree northwest to Habersham Rd. In addition to installment of dedicated turn lanes at Peachtree and Piedmont roads, crosswalk improvements; service of traffic police at major intersections, etc., a dramatic upgrading of part of Peachtree got underway in 2006. The first phase of this $40-million Peachtree Boulevard Project, from Maple Dr. to GA 400 with wider sidewalks, bike lanes, a landscaped median, custom lighting, a tree canopy, and more, was completed in October, 2007. In 2011 the CID voted to expand its boundaries to include the GA 400 Corridor, from Old Ivy Road to Loridans Drive, and in November of 2012, Phase II was officially opened. Currently, a Phase III improvement plan is being developed.
