What's getting built in Gwinnett County

Gwinnett County building permits — week of June 8–12, 2026

Dear Gwinnett,

Solid week. The county filed 202 permits — $42M worth of construction across 13 cities.

Excel Capital Construction pulled a $1.7M permit for Old Peachtree Road/A off Old Peachtree Rd, Duluth. The footprint is 6,121 sq ft on R100 zoning — larger-lot single-family — 100-ft lot minimums, common in newer neighborhoods. At roughly $282/sq ft in declared cost, that's upper bracket for new residential construction in Gwinnett. A custom build this size typically runs 14 to 20 months from permit to certificate of occupancy.

The rest of the week spread out the way Gwinnett usually does: 121 residential filings (79 of them brand-new builds) and 30 commercial. Taylor Morrison Of was the busiest name on the stack.

If you only look at one thing this week, make it the full record — all 202 filings, laid out plain. The county tells you everything; you just have to read it.

See you Friday,

Hank
