I'm in a nicer close-in suburb, and just outside the Perimeter (I-285), there is a PVC forest where a new apartment complex was under construction, now completely stopped. I'm glad they didn't get any further along than that, before stopping construction. The location is immediately to the East of the North Perimeter commercial zone, which is Atlanta's biggest "edge city" area.

You can see the site clearly with Google maps

I live in South Forsyth County and there are no fewer than 3 of these abandoned subdivisions right around mine. They have roads, sewer caps, partially built entrances and weeds. Not only are they a blight on the landscape, but they are prime opportunities for kids to get in trouble by racing the roads and congregating for beer parties.

That area looks like North Korea.

I’ve got a similar PVC forest over in Smyrna across the street from my neighborhood. It was supposed to be laden with $400K homes that would eventually drive the value of the entire neighborhood up...at least that’s what the developer told us all.
