The Forum Transformed
Originally opened in 2002, The Forum was acquired by joint venture partners North American Properties (NAP) and Nuveen Real Estate in March 2022 with plans to transform the open-air lifestyle center into a true mixed-use destination, marking the duo’s second redevelopment project together. Construction on Phase I, the public realm expansion and retail-focused improvements, began in May 2023 and is expected to be complete by this holiday season. The Forum’s merchandise collection is also getting a revamp, bringing new eateries, services and shops to downtown Peachtree Corners. Future phases include multifamily and a boutique hotel, both slated for a 2025 start.
