Any news from the downtown or Buckhead DRC's? I'd heard that there might be some highrise projects coming through.

The winner of Super Bowl LI's Most Valuable Player Award will go home with much more than a title if the Atlanta Falcons turn the New England Patriots into prey.

Olympia Heights Management LLC will give the MVP of the big game $500,000 towards a condominium at its development, No2 Opus Place, in the heart of Midtown.

For a second I thought it said condos were $500k. While still expensive, it gave me hope even more people would scoop up condos and construction would start sooner than later

Smart PR/Marketing move on their part.

Yeah...but most people, especially those who make a certain amount of money know that these players typically don't ever live in the city.

That is considerably less true than it used to be.

I'm referring to star athletes.

The city is getting a lot of free advertising the past two weeks. I wouldn't be surprise if their was a tremendous uptick in leasing and interest to live ITP.

Lol. As one who knows most of the socialites in Atlanta, people from entertainment to government, I know what I'm talking about. Some of you on here are hilarious or either in a state of mind of wishful thinking. I've been to different celebrities homes and government officials, athletes, etc. Atlanta, NY, and LA. Unless he's move since this past summer (not)...Matt lives over in Duluth. But before this gets into a debate, I won't comment on this topic any further.

Matt posted a photo recently on Facebook from a balcony at 3630 pechtree, but back to development...

The Trump of the Atlanta discussion has spoken. You should see Scania'a contact list... yuge.

Street Advocate · #**2014** Posted **Feb 5, 2017, 2:42 AM**

I don't care if athletes want to live here or not. We should build cities for teachers and engineers, not people with $40 million salaries. So what if you have a basketball court an NBA player goes to or you have a stellar quarterback. Atlanta will be nice one day. It'll be due to the people and not rich individual. Maybe Loudermilk

but other than that, we are good

The city should be for anyone that wants to be here. Including the wealthy, middle class, lower middle class, etc. It should never be discriminated against anyone.

I'm no celebrity but did get to greet Scania at Six Feet Under West Midtown a few years back...one of the real chill dudes of Atlanta.

ATLonthebrain · #**2018** Posted **Feb 5, 2017, 4:59 AM**

Was that the one I was part of, Libertarian?? I remember getting together with a group from SSP a few years back during one of my summer visits, I think. I may have even been the one to initiate the idea. It was great. Should try it again this summer when I hit town. The City has changed so much since then and continues to.

I imagine Ryan has both a house in Duluth and a pied-à-terre in the city.

You set it up and I'll turn up.
