ATLANTA—Cousins Properties is making moves to lease up its retail space in its Atlanta interests. Cousins picked CBRE to handle Terminus at Buckhead and Vantage Realty Partners to head up efforts at Emory Point in the Clifton corridor.

Cousins will continue to lease and manage the office component of Terminus. Gables Residential will continue to manage the residences at Emory Point, which it is co-developing with Cousins.

“We've seen this intersection evolve so much since Cousins began developing Terminus, and we're thrilled to contribute to the continued momentum,” says Amy Fingerhut in CBRE's Atlanta office. Terminus is a Cousins master-planned project with restaurants, first-class office space, luxury multi-family homes and street-level retail. CBRE is a major customer at Terminus, at the intersection of Peachtree and Piedmont roads in Buckhead.

Brittany McCall, an associate at Atlanta-based Vantage, will represent retail leasing at Emory Point. The  $170-plus million mixed-use project under development in Northeast Atlanta.

Emory Point is the first ground-up retail development in the Emory market in 20 years, and was one of the first construction projects started in Atlanta after the recession. The development has approximately 8,000 square feet of retail space available for immediate occupancy and an expansion phase with approximately 42,000 square feet for lease in two new buildings.

“Emory Point is positioned in one of the most dynamic markets in metro Atlanta, near the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Emory University and Emory Healthcare,” says McCall. “Cousins and Gables have an impressive vision of serving this fast-growing area with a strong selection of stores, restaurants and residences.”
