West of Midtown, a unique infill project being marketed as the “modern Atlanta dream home” with no shortage of vintage 1960s inspiration is ready for its closeup.

In both cases, that buys three bedrooms and two bathrooms in 1,650 square feet, with small yards of similar sizes and driveway parking. That breaks down to about $364 per square foot.
