AUGUSTA, Ga. — Visitors to the Masters Tournament who haven’t seen Augusta since 2019 might notice several changes on Washington Road. Perhaps the biggest change will be almost impossible to spot.
“The first thing that they’ll notice is the new buildings that the National has done, where the old San Souci Apartments were,” said Jordan Collier, director of commercial development at Augusta’s Meybohm Real Estate. “The thing that they won’t notice, but what’s there, is the tunnel.”
Those new buildings, difficult to see from the road, likely comprise the “Global Broadcast Village” whose construction Augusta National Golf Club announced in 2019. Apartment complexes Savannah West and The Greens on Washington also formerly stood on the property and were demolished.
