South Park Cottages Welcomes Residents & Guests At Grand Opening

South Park Cottages, the nation's first minority-developed tiny home community in Atlanta welcomes its residents in a groundbreaking, ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Real estate developer and CEO of Techie Homes, Booker T. Washington, hosts historical grand opening to South Park Cottages; his first of many future micro luxury communities in the United States. At the event, guests were able to celebrate this monumental accomplishment, tour floorpans, meet homeowners, and understand the future of Techie Homes.
Valued guests and speakers included:
Ambassador Andrew Jackson Young Jr.
Mayor Bianca Motley Broom, 27th Mayor of College Park, GA
Mayor Kasim Reed, 59th Mayor of Atlanta, GA
Julian Gordon, CEO of The Multi Family Movement
Washington plans to develop more luxury micro communities soon, starting in Union City, GA and we plan to continue coverage throughout the entire process.

These tiny homes community is exactly what the country needs. Especially for single people, seniors, and students 😊👌🏼 I’m hoping you guys make your way to California 😃

[@TheBoldOpinion]

We agree and are excited to see them populate the country! Thanks for watching.

[@scole1400]

Yes, California

[@willojam5787]

Yes, we need more of this in California. Wish to be apart of it💕

[@bcreighton]

Its already in the works, with the emergence of ADU's and the State of California giving incentives to landowners its only the matter of time when these communities will start arriving. They started with old buildings converting them into lodging spaces. In L.A. there is a mass movement to find placement for the homeless before the Olympics in 2028, stay tuned.

[@bobweiram6321]

This is a total waste of land. It could house more people for less money with more living space. This is a luxury shanty town!

[@Kym-N54]

I remember reading about this in their beginning stages. Glad to see that everything came to fruition.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

Yes and more! They’re breaking ground on a new property soon! 🧱⛏️

[@rayellenkishbach8998]

I have chills. This is so amazing to see! I hope we create many more communities like this!

[@sandrayoung1586]

It can be done

[@chavellsingleton6851]

Congratulations!!!!! Showed up and showed out!! The younger generation is watching and learning from what is being passed on to them. Let the grooming and growth begin.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

Very proud moment indeed! Thanks for watching!

[@broadwaysam8405]

Appears this man is living up to his namesake.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

He mentioned that in his speech that day! The reason why his mother gave him that name is because she saw something great in him. Very inspiring message! Thanks for watching!

[@CodyCole80]

I was just saying this the other day. What you name your child is important.

[@kevinkinney8991]

This is amazing and even more so because of the ties to Julien Gordon. I've been seeing him on Instagram and it's great to see that not everyone is out here selling "snake oil" and there are people out here really actually standing by their word. Congratulations Mr. Washington and I hope your next venture is even more successful ✊🏿

[@TheBoldOpinion]

We love to see when growth emerges from a planted seed! Well done to Mr. Washington and the team! Thanks for watching.

[@34jaysworld]

Congratulations 🎊 👏🏽 our people are coming back. There is a sister who is having her grand opening in July in North Carolina 2024. We don't need these huge homes filled with clutter trying to keep up with the Jones. ❤🎉 Look forward to seeing your next project.

[@MaryJones-ck5ju]

I LOVE THIS FAMILY. THESE ARE MY KIND OF PEOPLE. GOD BLESS AND HOPE THIS CATCHES ON.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

Stay tuned in because we plan to follow Mr. Washington as he develops these properties all over the city! Thanks for watching :-)

[@iLoveLeatherNYC]

Found out about this a few days ago it popped up on my KZbin feed, love the idea and concept, everything thoughtful and elegant. My hope is that this will continue and become a blueprint for more projects.

[@SharriD]

The revival of tiny houses have been around for more than a decade now. It's great to see developers embracing this concept to provide affordable housing. The main issue is maintaining affordability. I'm not so sure that has been accomplished with this development since these homes range between $190K-$230K for a 335 sq ft to 660 sq feet and the average cost per square foot in the same area is $198. Their competion, manufactured housing, follows the same concept, with more square footage and 2 bedrooms is priced between $56K - $75K. I guess it boils down to the buyer's preferences.

[@katydid2877]

These are probably more expensive because there’s not true “tiny homes” that, in the beginning were built in one location on wheels and taken to another location to live, or move somewhere else. Many tiny home communities are for the homes on wheels and charge a lot fee like a trailer park, like $700-$800 a month. I looked at the website for this cottage community but couldn’t find the HOA fees, but yes, these are not cheap at all and I wouldn’t buy one. Hope they have a really strict HOA.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

Definitely boils down to buyer preference. Thanks for watching. As far as we know, these particular homes have all been sold. However, Techie Homes is in the process of building a brand new community, similar to this one, in Union City, GA. We would encourage you to reach out to them online to learn more! Thanks again for watching :-)

Congratulations Atlanta from Rochester NY!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 God is so Good!!! I’ve been desiring to live in a tiny house for years! I can’t wait to visit!! God bless you!! ⚓️🔐🙏🏽🙌🏽🏘

[@MaiBGrowNLoco]

Getting a tiny home built in my backyard! This seems like a great idea for the builders =$$$ I personally wouldn’t live in one of these types of communities… BUT congrats to all those that will enjoy these homes! 👍🏾 I would like to see an update in about 5 years. Hear what the people who purchased these places have to say about their experience.

This is AMAZING! Sooo fantastic! How about developing something like this for 55+ active living seniors right in downtown where all the amenities are. I would buy one or rent one! Builders often times think of younger people, but we need something like this to have a great 55+ comunity.

[@missp3482]

this is great for people who can't afford these high priced homes, I just hope the can keep some people from taking advantage and buying them to rent out at high prices.

[@TheBoldOpinion]

We agree! It's possible there's some sort of agreement in place for buyers to make sure things like that don't happen. Thank you for watching! :)
