CRABAPPLE MERCANTILE EXCHANGE is a 53,840 sq. ft. mixed-use development at the Crabapple Community in Milton, Georgia, a North Atlanta suburb.  The zoning conditions with respect to specific uses on site allowed for 22,532 square feet of retail space, 23,467 square feet of office space, and 7,841 square feet of residential lofts. The buildings were constructed 2007-2009 of structural steel frames wrapped with four sides of handmade brick featuring authentic 18^th  and 19^th century architectural elements, such as a Beaux Arts gate from France made in the 1880s, old world gas lanterns, and eleven foot high period storefronts. The developer (John Adams) carefully selected tenants that provided for a synergistic mix, and targets upscale boutique style businesses, such as antique stores, women’s clothing boutiques, old world barbershops, confectioneries, floral shops, jewelry stores, upscale restaurants, and more.
