Images: Now finished, Gracewood claims long-vacant corner near EAVJosh GreenTue, 03/03/2026 - 13:08A loft-apartment project that’s replaced a long-vacant corner south of East Atlanta Village is ready for its closeup, following a year and ½ of construction. The Gracewood, a 36-unit SLR Investments project located where Moreland and Gracewood avenues meet, has fully wrapped construction and begun a marketing push in recent weeks. Aesthetically, the Ormewood Park building and its units are described as being “where Brooklyn-inspired design meets the Southern charm of ATL.”The pitch to potential tenants includes what could be a first for Atlanta apartment incentives: Developers have partnered with Edison Electric Bicycles, a Kirkwood-based e-bike maker, to offer free electric bikes in exchange for one-year leases, according to real estate agent Jonathan Rich, whose Seven Real Estate Group is handling The Gracewood’s leasing. Edison’s e-bikes are currently priced from $2,199.

The brick-clad Gracewood building replaced a vacant lot at 1160 Gracewood Ave., just south of the Ormewood Square commercial hub that’s home to Morelli’s Gourmet Ice Cream, Little Azio, and other businesses. It’s also across the street from Pollo Primo restaurant and roughly half a mile south of EAV.According to Rich, The Gracewood’s 36 apartments are all one bedrooms, ranging in size from 600 to 800 square feet. Monthly rents range between $1,400 and $1,750, based on size and placement in the building, Rich said.

All apartments include either outdoor spaces or porches.SLR Investments—the company behind the Alley of Edgewood project, another newer eastside residential build—purchased the .7-acre lot in Ormewood Park for $1.06 million in 2023.
