Is a new city vision taking shape on Roswell Road?
Across the street, in the 6000 block of Roswell Road, developer Kirk Demetrops with MidCity Partners is requesting a zoning change for the property, where a seven-story office building and Bank of America stand. According to Demetrops, Bank of America has been issued a building permit to construct a new branch where KFC and Checkers were located, adjacent to the proposed development.

That project is scheduled to go before the Planning Commission on Jan. 15 and the council on Feb. 17.
