Wellstone Health System has brought in The Integral Group to spearhead the effort to redevelop the shuttered Atlanta Medical Center. Construction will begin in the next few weeks.

The 22-acre campus vision includes a mixed-use neighborhood with affordable housing, residential properties, community and public green space, neighborhood-level retail, new street access, commercial uses, and health and well-being resources.

Over the next few weeks, Integral will develop an implementation plan and engage with neighbors and community stakeholders to gather further feedback. The revitalization effort will take place in phases over several years, with community input at every stage. In response to the neighborhood’s desire to see progress quickly, Integral expects to apply for permits soon with the goal of beginning the demolition of certain aging structures in the first quarter of 2025.

Wellstar closed Atlanta Medical Center in November 2022. Wellstar blamed the closure on falling revenue and increasing costs for staff and supplies.
