The Grove at Towne Center

The Grove at Towne Center Snellville was announced on August 26, 2019.

Mayor Barbara Bender is proud to announce an agreement has been reached with a development team to build the first phase of the city's highly anticipated The Grove at Towne Center.

The project's $85 million first phase will commence construction in 2020 and deliver in 2022. The project will include multiple private and public buildings to be developed through a public-private partnership.

The project will be led by CASTO, one of the country's leading commercial real estate companies, along with Atlanta based development partner MidCity Real Estate Partners, in a joint venture with the City of Snellville. The Grove at Towne Center, will be a large scale, mixed-use town center property, comprising 18 total acres between Oak Road, North Road, Clower Street and both sides of Wisteria Drive, in downtown Snellville. The Grove at Towne Center's first phase will include over 50,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, office and entertainment space, and approximately 250 multi-family luxury apartments. In addition, the new Elizabeth Williams Library will be constructed and include a second-floor community/incubator/education space.

The city and Gwinnett County previously entered into an intergovernmental agreement to build the library and parking for library patrons.
