Selig's "The Works" project looks great, from the site plans I've seen they're doing their best to avoid a super block type development. That whole area of West Midtown (?) is doing great, but the railroads, existing land uses, and infrastructure out there really limits connectivity and the ability to move traffic and people. It'll be interesting to see what happens as these projects begin to deliver - will traffic become a nightmare?

Lindbergh Center TOD

• Preliminary planning is underway to continue development of one of MARTA’s first forays into TODs. Upper East Side is hoping to bring more than 200 residential units, a 143-room hotel, and 18,000 square feet of retail space to lots fronting Piedmont Road.

Does that seem like an absurd amount of parking to anyone else?

No-- quite the contrary. Atlanta norms are 5 spaces per 1,000 sf for Office (In this case 250 x 5= 1,250 spaces) and 1.5 per unit for residential (338 x 1.5 = 525 spaces). This development would have 1,757 spaces if developed in a typical ATL way. So yes, its exceptional for its LACK of parking--

Thank you for interjecting facts vs opinion. We need more of that.

I wonder if the tenants who will have that ugly yellow thing cutting across their view will get a break on their rent?

From the Atlanta Business Chronicle:

Report questions whether Anthem Inc. might move HQ to Atlanta

The article speculates that Anthem may be considering not just locating their IT Center in Atlanta, but also relocating their Corporate HQ here.

This may be one of the "big corporate relocations" we keep hearing rumors about.

Anthem has $90 Billion in revenue. This would be a major win for Atlanta. Appian, a software company based in DC, is close to making a decision to move to Midtown and bring 1500 jobs as well.
