Now Open: Link Apartments® Lake Park Brings Essential Housing to the Atlanta Area

Link Apartments® Lake Park has opened for leasing in Smyrna, GA, and showcases Grubb Properties’ shared parking solution that unlocks additional space for essential housing.

The community brings 277 units of essential housing to what was previously a five-acre surface parking lot, helping address the growing need for attainable housing in the suburban Atlanta area. Residents of Link Apartments® Lake Park share a structured parking deck with tenants of the adjacent office building – a strategy Grubb Properties has successfully deployed at several of its properties in the Southeast.

This technique adds housing to land once devoted to parking and reduces the cost of construction. Grubb Properties can build fewer parking spaces for the shared deck than it would for the two uses separately, resulting in savings that can be passed along to residents. It also reduces recurring operational costs while ensuring both residents and tenants have sufficient parking available.

“Our newest Link Apartments community will bring essential housing to a connected, central location in Smyrna, which has become one of the most in-demand Atlanta submarkets as middle-income renters search for attainable housing,” said Clay Grubb, CEO of Grubb Properties.

Residents at Link Apartments® Lake Park benefit from its location just over a mile from Truist Park, which is the home of the Atlanta Braves, and The Battery, an entertainment, dining and shopping district. To maximize transportation connectivity, the property includes a cycle center with bike storage and a pedestrian-friendly site design that connects to trails that provide direct access to the surrounding area.

The community is close to major employers as well as green spaces including parks and the nearby Silver Comet Trail. Community amenities include a resort-style pool, clubhouse and resident lounge, courtyard, dog park, and fitness center.
