IN THE NEWS

• Plenty of land downtown, boosters tell developers: Central Atlanta Progress recently released a map highlighting areas ripe for development in the submarket. The map shows fi ve areas in Downtown with tracts large enough to support transformative development. These fi ve areas include: the area near Five Points MARTA station, the ‘Gulch’ area near the Georgia Dome, the Sweet Auburn district, the Fairlie-Poplar district and the “railroad district” near Castleberry Hill. In all, these areas encompass a total of 467 under utilized acres.

• Grand plans for ‘Gulch’ hub a transit gamble: With plans for a multi-modal transit terminal back on track, the project faces a number of uncertainties. The total cost of such a grandiose project is one; especially when even the best guess could be far off . Funding to build rail systems linking to the hub is another, along with whether or not metro Atlantans will take it upon themselves to adopt alternative transportation. Finally, there is question as to whether or not the hub will create demand for more real estate in the area given the excess of empty and dilapidated buildings. Regardless, enough interest from both local and international development fi rms exists for redeveloping the 16-acres tract.

• Cox Enterprises donates former AJC building to city: The former location of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is being donated to the city of Atlanta by Cox Enterprises. The AJC relocated from the facility earlier this year to offi ce space in Central Perimeter. The donation includes a nine-story offi ce building, four-story printing press building, warehouse space and surface parking. Mayor Kasim Reed plans to use the facilities for police and fi re training academies, gallery space and for a public auditorium.

Accelerating success.

AT A GLANCE | Streetcar gets funding

COLLIERS INTERNATIONAL | ATLANTA OFFICE | DOWNTOWN LISTINGS

• U.S. Department of Transportation agrees to grant $47 million to the city’s proposed $70 million streetcar project.

• First phase of project will run 2.6 miles from the King Center site to Centennial Olympic Park, featuring a dozen stops and direct connection to MARTA.

• Expected to provide 2,600 trips a weekday in its fi rst year of operation.

• Critics argue the streetcar will do nothing to ease metro Atlanta’s biggest transportation problems.

• Construction begins in 2012 with a completion date targeted for 2013.
