Demolition set to begin at troubled College Park condominiums

COLLEGE PARK, Ga. — Demolition will begin soon at a troubled condominium complex in College Park.

In a Facebook post, Councilwoman Keosha Bell confirmed that Building 9 at the Camelot Condominiums will be removed to “eliminate potential hazards and to prepare the side for future improvements.”

The demolition at the condominiums marks a significant milestone in the revitalization of the City of South Fulton District 5. It is the first step in the community’s ongoing investment in creating a safer, healthier, and more vibrant living environment for residents.

“This project is tangible progress in the removal of a long-standing damaged building,” said the Mayor Pro Tem and Camelot District 5 Councilmember Keosha B.  Bell. “Our priority is the safety and well-being of our residents, and although the demolition of Building 9 is just the beginning, it reflects our continued commitment to remove blight as we build a safer, stronger community where every family has the opportunity to THRIVE!”

Site staging and preparation began on Monday, Feb. 24, with demolition beginning on Thursday, Feb. 26 and continuing over two weeks as weather permits.

During demolition, city officials say residents can expect increased construction activity and are asked to maintain distance, be aware of elevated noise and dust, and comply with parking restrictions, including “No Parking” signage.

Community leaders emphasize that this milestone is part of a broader transformation plan to enhance property values and increase neighborhood safety and pride.
