Built in 2007, Element Atlantic Station Condos had building elements in much need of improvements. Southern Wall Systems was tapped to remediate the entire envelope of the five-story structure—some 200,000 square feet worth.

The general contractor entrusted SWS to:

• Demolish the deteriorated material
• Block and frame anew
• Apply new stucco to the facade
• Sheath the exterior
• Install new roofing
• Waterproof the envelope and replace failing sealant
• Apply elastomeric coatings

Fun facts

• Atlantic Station sits on 138 acres and has its own ZIP code: 30363
• The Atlantic Steel Mill operated at the site from 1901 to the 1990s, manufacturing barrel hoops, field fencing, nails, rivets, and more.
• At the time it opened in 2005, Atlantic Station was the nation’s largest urban redevelopment project.
