Best Project, Residential/Hospitality: Thompson Buckhead Hotel
The 10-story, 156,000-sq-ft Thompson Buckhead Hotel brought a new level of luxury to one of Atlanta’s most desirable neighborhoods, with 201 guest rooms and an exclusive members-only club with rooftop pool and bar. Contractor Brasfield & Gorrie had to navigate the constraints of a small, triangular site with close proximity to neighbors on a busy street to deliver the boutique hotel with a strong contextual architecture.
The tight site left only sidewalks and porte-cochere for storing materials, and required all deliveries to be precisely scheduled and to arrive on time, including floor-by-floor deliveries and some rebar pretied offsite.
