Plans for the construction of The Overlook retail center along Ga. Highway 54 West in Peachtree City are coming together. So are the tenants that will populate the center.
Consisting of two buildings totaling approximately 98,000 sq. ft. of retail, the large building will include a T.J. Maxx and Homegoods as the anchor tenants. Smaller storefronts will house a Michaels arts and crafts, a Versona women’s boutique, an Ulta cosmetics and fragrance salon and two businesses to be determined. The businesses were indicated on a recent map of The Overlook development.
Several other smaller shops will be located in the small building on the development’s northwest side in a space that totals approximately 10,000 sq. ft.
The portion of the development situated along Hwy. 54 will be the new home of a Chick-fil-A restaurant and the RaceTrac Neighborhood Center.
The Chick-fil-A restaurant will total 4,927 sq. ft. with 132 indoor seats and 31 seats outside.
The RaceTrac station wil total 5,928 sq. ft. and will be outfitted with 20 pumps.
Grading and initial work on the new center is underway. As a part of the development, an access road will be constructed through the streetside portion of the Line Creek Nature Area connecting The Overlook to the MacDuff Crossing retail center. This road connection is designed to allow safer access into the Line Creek Nature Area along with allowing traffic to enter and exit the retail centers using the existing traffic signal at the Hwy. 54 and MacDuff Crossing intersection.
Also occurring in the immediate area, construction activities are underway to install a “continuous green T” intersection at Line Creek Drive which will serve as the entrance for The Overlook.
The signalized intersection will allow westbound traffic to flow through continuously without stopping. To accomplish this, traffic on the northern part of the intersection will be restricted to a right-in, right-out while and traffic turning left out of The Overlook shopping center to go west will queue into a merge line that will be constructed in the median.
Construction of the new intersection project will take place between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. so that construction activities can avoid rush-hour traffic in the already traffic-heavy section of Hwy. 54.
