The City of Refuge is a faith-based organization located in Atlanta, Georgia that helps families and individuals transition out of crisis. This one-of-a-kind organization offers health & wellness, housing, job training and youth development in the middle of one of Atlanta’s most historic and struggling neighborhoods where nearly 40% of the residents live below the Federal Poverty Level. In a time of need and fundraising, RAD delivered schematic design and visioning for a new 36,000 SF mixed use facility. Along with these visuals, Bruce Deel was able to raise the funds and the next phase of design & documentation was able to commence. This ground up facility will provide 25 affordable housing apartments, along with a medical clinic, credit union, fresh market and a co-working space which will all aid in the transformation of the lives this organization impacts. There is no better example of a project where architecture can serve as a catalyst for doing good, and we are appreciative and thankful for the City of Refuge allowing up to team with them on this effort. Construction is scheduled to be completed by summer of 2025 and we cant wait to see the lives impacted by this facility.
