WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
1. From Quarry Yards, the Underground and more, what major projects are in store for Atlanta's CRE scene?
2. How are developers dealing with rising construction costs?
3. More than 90% of housing in Atlanta built in 2018 was considered luxury. Will 2019 see a surge in affordable and low-income housing?
4. From residents to tenants, how is the growing population influencing development trends in Atlanta?
5. How can recently-approved Opportunity Zones aid Atlanta's development boom?
WHY THIS MATTERS
Atlanta's development boom shows no signs of stopping in 2019. According to a report from Cushman & Wakefield, Atlanta gained 52,050 jobs year-over-year, up to 1.9% compared to the 1.1% YOY nationwide. Employment is also down to 3.7%, well below the national average. Millennials and baby boomers alike are flocking into the city, and major projects - from Pittsburgh Yards to the Gulch and more - rise to meet the growing population. But is Atlanta's development boom also making strides to meet the demands for affordable housing, additional healthcare vicinities, and more? And how are developers facing rising construction prices as their projects come to fruition?
