And in my opinion, it's not CIM's vision.
The Gulch could be what the Buckhead Village was in its nightclub heydey. It could easily become the new Underground Atlanta/Kenny's Alley circa 1970s if curated properly.
And that wouldn't necessarily need to include spending $500,000,000 on raising the Gulch to street level. Honestly, most of the charm was that it was below street level.
There is so much vitality and energy there for United games, it would be a shame to coat it in mixed-use homogeny. There is something genuinely authentic there. It's just not CIM's vision.
