Brewing legal beef over TAD extensions threatens $5.5B neighborhood renewal plan The dispute could determine whether billions of dollars fund the Neighborhood Reinvestment Initiative.

City of Atlanta when progressives propose something in Atlanta that *might* be construed as conflicting with state law:

"Whoa, we can't do THAT!"

City, when mayor proposes something terrible that (clearly) runs afoul of state law & told he can't:

"What? We'll sue if you try to stop us!"

Converting mid 20th century offices, with large floor plates, into housing is not easy. Too much space not near windows. Who wants to live in a space w/o windows?
This is why I cringed when Atlanta bought 2 Peachtree from the state.

Does anyone think the ACP board members care about public school funding? Look at who's on the board and tell me if they send their kids to public school? Its all CEOs of Atlanta's largest corporations. NRI is just another chapter in The Atlanta Way.

It really is something watching Dickens line up all the city institutions in support of his Neighborhood Reinvestment TAD scheme while in parallel using Zoning 2.0 to stridently preserve the Jim Crow zoning maps that caused the disinvestment in the first place.

Keisha used HQ2 mania to give the Ressler billionaire bros a $1.9 billion tax subsidy for the Gulch. The project's numbers were based on 9M SF of office towers for 50,000 Amazonians.
Actual offices built: 0 SF.
Keisha for the People, right?

I will give MARTA the benefit of the doubt and it's a learning/training curve for the bus operators. Of course construction downtown could be holding up the bus.

No one ever accused MARTA of being a competent transit agency. The current 40' buses are the same model as can be found on all routes, so the doors should align.

MARTA is working out the kinks and nuisances. The bus I rode had a training instructing helping the driver align to the platforms and show where the temporary stops are on Hank Aaron.
