Mercy Park Recognized by ULI Atlanta
The Urban Land Institute (ULI) Atlanta Awards for Excellence Program recognizes outstanding real estate development projects or initiatives that exemplify ULI’s mission of providing leadership in the responsible use of land and in creating and sustaining thriving communities. The ULI Awards program identifies and promotes best practices in all types of real estate development.
The ULI recognized Mercy Park and issued an award for its excellence in Civic/Institutional Development. Mercy Park combines a 79-unit affordable senior housing community with a 50,000 square foot health clinic that provides adult and pediatric primary, mental health, and dental care services to residents as well as the greater community. The collaboration between Mercy Care and Mercy Housing demonstrates a creative approach to mission-based, not-for-profit development. By sharing the land, infrastructure, and development costs, the two organizations have initiated an innovative path toward cost-effective, resourceful, and efficient development. Long Engineering, Inc. is proud to have provided the civil engineering services on this award winning project.
