February 7, 2007 – Gramercy, a 70-acre mixed-use development officially broke ground. Gramercy development is slated to include higher-density housing, multi-story office, supportive retail and restaurants. “Gramercy is a place where one can wake up, have a morning cup of coffee with a friend, drop off their dry cleaning and head to work without ever getting into their car,” according to Joe Atalla of Tuscany Development, Inc. “This is a community Meridian has been needing for some time now.” The ground breaking starts the construction of the infrastructure and roads with building construction starting this spring and summer with residential dwelling available early 2008.
