Questions remain as Kirkwood senior housing project heads for full Atlanta City Council vote A rezoning request to build an apartment building for homeless senior citizens in Kirkwood received approval from the Atlanta City Council’s Zoning Committee on May 11, but with a series of added conditions not shared with the neighborhood before the vote. The 0.66-acre property, located at the corner of Howard and Hallman streets, is owned by Turner Monumental AME, which proposed the project, and is currently zoned for a single-family home. If granted, the request would change the zoning to PDH – planned development housing. The rezoning request was expected to go before the full city council on Monday, May 18, but an agenda for the meeting had not been released on Friday afternoon at the time of this story's publication. https://roughdraftatlanta.com/2026/05/15/conditions-added-kirkwood-rezoning/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
