Marietta elected officials joined the ribbon-cutting ceremony November 12 of Emerson Overlook, a seven-story mixed-use building located at 326 Roswell Street near the library and Marietta National Cemetery.
Emerson Overlook’s first three floors, about 45,000 square feet of class A office space, will be occupied by the local law firm Moore, Ingram, Johnson and Steele. The law firm will host a grand opening for their floors after the first of the year.
Emerson Overlook’s 32 one, two, and three-bedroom residential condos will occupy floors four through seven, range in size from 1,100-3,000 square feet and range in price from the mid $200s-$600s. Each condo has a balcony, and there is also a rooftop deck, which offers views of the Hilton Atlanta/Marietta Hotel & Conference Center, downtown Atlanta and the Big Chicken. A three-story parking deck accommodates over 220 cars, DeBoy said.
Emerson Overlook is three blocks from the Square and within walking distance to more than two dozen restaurants, the post office, Theatre in the Square, the Strand Theatre, Marietta Museum of History, Gone with the Wind Museum and Marietta/Cobb Museum of Art.
Developer Roger DeBoy named Emerson Overlook, Emerson Hill and Emerson Coffee Shop after his father. “Our father’s name was Emerson, so we named the project in his honor,” DeBoy said.
Marietta’s dedication to redevelopment in the city is a goal in the city’s vision statement.

I had a very disturbing incident with your sales people on Sunday, May 15th. I had made an appointment to meet with Iris at 2 pm Sunday afternoon. She instructed me to call her when I arrived at the door and she’d buzz me in. When I arrived I called and the man who answered informed me that Iris was out with three customers showing them the property and to call back later. Quite frankly, when I asked for Iris, he definitely wanted to end our conversation. I told him that I was at the door so he buzzed me into the lobby. I went to the elevators and pushed the 5th floor button…nothing happened. After a second and third try, I called again…twice the phone was picked up (and I could hear the man’s voice) and it appears he was punching the key pad on the phone…he didn’t respond when I kept saying hello. Finally, the third time I got the voice mail recording. I left a message that I’d wait in the lobby for 5 minutes. I feel this was very poor customer service even if I wasn’t that man’s customer. And it was also very poor customer service for Iris to make an appointment with me and then not make arrangements in the event she was preoccupied. I left and did not hear from Iris until 4:30 pm…additional poor customer service. As I told Iris, I am a serious buyer and I certainly expect better customer service than to be left stranded in a lobby with no seating and no knowledge of when I would receive assistance. I wasted my afternoon and gas to travel at a set time to your establishment in hopes of purchasing a condo. Sincerely, Connie Davis
