Why Locate in the Downtown Business District?
Atlanta's Downtown Business District represents millions of dollars invested in public property and infrastructure. Downtown is the most visible indicator of Atlanta's prosperity and is a great asset in our effort to recruit new businesses and industries, new residents, retirees, tourists, and others to Atlanta and to keep those already here. Economic vitality and quality of life issues separate Atlanta from unsuccessful, declining communities.

Atlanta's Downtown Business District provides a setting for small businesses much like a business park. Such a setting can be compared to the way an industrial park provides a setting for manufacturers. Space is readily available downtown. More job growth is projected to occur in small businesses in the next two decades than any other sector of the economy. Downtown is a major employer with 65 businesses creating over 215 jobs.
Downtown is the heart of Atlanta's heritage. The architecture of downtown is a physical expression of Atlanta's history. Retention and preservation of downtown properties makes good economic sense and leaves a legacy for future generations.
Downtown Atlanta has a strong business and job base, a friendly, convenient environment and available properties! Come Downtown-it makes good sense!
