UPDATE (July 16, 2018): New Renderings and Site Plan Emerge For Phipps Plaza Expansion

Simon Property Group has taken its first major step in moving forward with its $200 million Phipps Plaza expansion.

The real estate firm early last week filed plans with the City of Atlanta for demolition to the soon-to-shutter Belk and its corresponding parking structure, CoStar News first reported.

A Nobu Hotel and Nobu Atlanta Restaurant will be built in the department store’s place.

Plans, announced in November 2017, also call for a 90,000-square-foot Life Time® Athletic center and a 12-story Class A office building, complete with a three-story lower level parking garage.

Construction, beginning with Belk’s demolition, could begin any day with a phased opening beginning in spring 2020.

An estimated $6,100,000 will be spent on demolition of the 450,000-square-foot building and parking structure.
