A proposed mixed-use building in downtown Smyrna just got the green light from the City Council, which voted 6-0 to approve the development on Dec. 19. 

The project will go up on the corner of Church Street and Atlanta Road. Courtesy of Google Maps.

Tanalta LLC and Jamac Corp. plan to build a four-story, 37,800-square-foot building with 24 lofts and 9,450 square feet of commercial and office space on the southwest corner of Church Street and Atlanta Road.

The project will require the demolition of the former Ken’s Corner Deli, which closed in May after almost 50 years in business, and a small office building that currently houses the Cochran & Edwards law firm. 

The ground floor will hold office, retail and restaurant space, while one- and two-bedroom residences will be on the second through fourth floors.

A two-story parking deck with 68 spaces will be adjacent to the building on the 1.09-acre site, which will also have five surface spaces.
