This new development promises an NHL arena, homes, hotels, and shopping.


Heads up, everybody: a massive, game-changing development is officially coming to the Alpharetta and South Forsyth County area! Following approval from the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners, "The Gathering at South Forsyth" is moving forward—a monumental mixed-use project with the bold goal to bring an NHL hockey team back to the Atlanta area.

This $3 billion development represents a significant increase from its initial $2 billion estimate, underscoring its scale and ambition. The project's crucial next step is for the developers to present the plans to the NHL Board of Governors, making the case for why this should be the new home for a franchise.

A major hub for entertainment, commerce, and community life.

So, what can residents and visitors expect? The centerpiece of The Gathering will be a major arena designed for a professional hockey team. Development extends far beyond the rink, however, as plans include a vibrant mix of new homes, hotels, restaurants, bars, and shopping destinations. A key feature is its connectivity to the popular Big Creek Greenway, a 26-mile trail for walking and biking that links Roswell to Cumming, ensuring the project integrates with the area's existing outdoor amenities.

The economic impact is projected to be substantial. The development is expected to create thousands of jobs during and after construction and generate significant ongoing revenue for the local economy. This project promises to transform South Forsyth into a major hub for entertainment, commerce, and community life.
