"Our objective

with The Avenue Peachtree City was to establish a superior professional

relationship with city officials to support the integrity of their highly

respected development and design standards" said Joel Murphy, president

of Cousins retail division.

Each year,

the building department recognizes local developers for exceptional achievements

during the preceding year. Past recipients incude Group VI, the Tek-rail

office in 2000; MEJA Construction/David Millican in 1999 and Garrard Construction/The

Shenshi project in 1998.

"The Avenue

Peachtree City venture was succesful because it was a total team effort,"

said building official Tom Carty.

"From

abiding by safety regulations to engineering and landscaping to meeting

deadlines, every aspect of the project was handled to perfection. It was

a pleasure to work with Cousins Properties and has been a pleasure to

enjoy the finished project."

The Avenue

opened in late March 2001 and features 167,000 square feet of shopping

space. The project also includes 12,000 square feet of loft office space.
