With 48 units per acre, the apartments will be designed to appeal to young professionals and singles, Sams added.
South City Vice President of Development Will Casady told the City Council that a one-bedroom apartment would rent for $1,250 per month and the monthly rental for the two-bedroom apartment would depend on the floor plan.
Casady said South City, an Atlanta-based firm formed in 2011, is involved in regional development such as City Center in Alpharetta and Revival on Main in Kennesaw.
Once this development in Marietta is complete, Casady estimated the value would be $40 million to $50 million.
