I can remember when this view was just an abandoned brown field. WOW
Atlanta is changing so rapidly that in under 2 years this view will include several new buildings across he Connector, and more infill in Atlantic Station's core.

I'm loving it.

The city is really coming into it's own right now.

Any updates on the proposed dual brand hotel?

How it started

How it was envisioned

How it's going

That black and white photo is from 2005?! Wow. Midtown looks like a village compared to what is there today.

No, that photo is likely from 1981-ish. BoA plaza doesn’t exist and Bellsouth/ AT&T Center is still under construction.

Correct. I was at Smith Dorm at Ga Tech 1980/1981 and I watched the Bellsouth tower get built across the interstate from my dorm room.

Atlantic Station or anywhere else in Midtown needs a Uniqlo.

YES! I've been waiting for one to come to town. Even Disney Springs has one! At one point, I thought the second floor of PCM would've been a perfect fit, but I think that space has been filled out in the meantime.

I wonder what's the hold up? Uniqlo would do very well in Atlanta.
