Midtown Mile 1010 Midtown was the first phase to be completed under the "Midtown Mile" master plan, an ambitious retail initiative introduced in 2007 that envisioned 3,000,000 sq ft (280,000 m2) of upscale street-level retail and dining along Peachtree Street. While the sweeping scope of the initiative was later scaled back following the economic downturn, the building successfully anchored the dense, four-block commercial development known as 12th & Midtown.
