Featured Speakers REIAC SE 1st Quarter Event Thursday, March 14, 2019 The Buckhead Club Online Registration Open From Phipps Plaza and Piedmont Atlanta Hospital in Buckhead to Midtown's Technology Square to the Gulch in downtown, the current construction and real estate boom is once again changing the face of Atlanta. According to Central Atlanta Progress, downtown has $900 million in projects currently under construction, with an additional $5+ billion planned to develop the Gulch. No single project has had the potential to change our city like the Gulch. And there has been much media speculation over the exact nature of the improvement plan. Now for the first time, REIAC's March 14th program will bring together the Project's decision makers and stakeholders to discuss the Plan's blueprint and what it will mean for Atlanta. Topics for discussion will include: CIM Group, the company and its values The vision for the Gulch The timeline and scope of the construction How will the project impact the rest of downtown? Did the Amazon decision cause any redesign? How about nearby neighborhoods? How will the Project impact transportation, congestion and traffic? Will the Project affect future development in other parts of the City? Does the plan include general and affordable housing? Featured Speakers: J. Shannon Crowell: Vice President, Development - CIM Group LP Steve Koonin: Chief Executive Officer - Atlanta Hawks & State Farm Arena AJ Robinson: President - Central Atlanta Progress & Atlanta Downtown Improvement District Sharon Gay: Moderator Managing Partner - Dentons Atlanta Please join us for an informative and lively discussion on a topic that will affect our entire city for generations to come. As always, an array of food and an open bar will be provided.

Progress Update December 2020
DECEMBER 2020 n PROGRESS UPDATE TABLE OF CONTENTS LETTER FROM THE MAYOR 1 Dear Neighbors, In June of 2019, we launched the One Atlanta: Housing Affordability Action Plan – Letter from the Mayor Atlanta’s first comprehensive, multi-agency housing strategy. As I stated in that plan, my priority as Mayor is ensuring that Atlanta is affordable for all who desire to call our 2 city home, especially long-time residents. Leading City Agencies Since we launched our plan, the world has changed. Atlanta has been struck by a pandemic that has taken the lives of hundreds of Atlantans and caused an economic 3 crisis. Tragic local and national events have also laid bare the harsh realities of the racial inequities we face as a city and a nation. Black and brown communities have COVID-19 Response Efforts been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19, economic insecurity, and housing instability – issues linked in ways we had not previously considered. 4 The events of 2020 have only heightened our sense of urgency to continue to move At a Glance toward the One Atlanta vision – a city that is more affordable, resilient, and equitable. That is why the 45 actions outlined in the One Atlanta: Housing Affordability Action 6 Plan are so important and why we remain committed to achieving our goals. Create or preserve 20,000 affordable homes In just the second year of our six-year action plan, we have launched more than 65% of the actions in the plan. Since January of 2018, the City and its agencies have 10 committed and invested over $497 million in the creation and preservation of 6,007 affordable homes.

In the seven-hour meeting, which was sponsored by Central Atlanta Progress, participants reached some important conclusions about this important part of Atlanta. The most important conclusion is that the Corridor has enormous potential as a walkable, livable, energetic center for Atlanta, but to be fully successful four things have to happen: 1. There must be significant investments in transportation infrastructure, including building a multimodal passenger terminal. 2. The Underground Atlanta former World of Coca-Cola area must be successfully revitalized or redeveloped, perhaps with the addition of a casino. 3. The Capitol Mall project, which is a proposed park from the state Capitol to the edge of Oakland Cemetery, should be built – and, if possible, cross the Downtown Connector by means of a “cap” on the freeway.

Frequently Asked Questions the Gulch Development Project
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS THE GULCH DEVELOPMENT PROJECT What is the Gulch? The Gulch is an approximately 40 acre undeveloped area in Downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The Gulch area is at ground level, while the streets that surround it are elevated — they were originally elevated in the early 20th century so that traffic could more easily flow above the railroad lines passing through Downtown Atlanta. The area is roughly bounded by Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive on the south, a railroad line and the Mercedes-Benz Stadium on the west, Centennial Olympic Park Drive and Philips Arena on the northwest, CNN Center parking deck on the northeast and Ted Turner Drive on the southeast. Who is the proposed developer of the Gulch area? The CIM Group, Los-Angeles based, has proposed to develop the 40-acre Gulch area into a mixed-use devel- opment. Established in 1994, the CIM Group® owns and operates real estate assets that support the needs of communities across North America. The company’s primary strategies focus on real estate, infrastructure and lending. What exists in the Gulch area today? The Gulch area is currently undeveloped and largely consists of railroad infrastructure (i.e. tracks) and is used for tailgating and parking for sporting events at Mercedes Benz Stadium and State Farm Arena. Essentially, it is a large hole, 40 feet below street level. Why is it necessary to develop the Gulch area? The State, City and business organizations have worked for decades to bring development to the Gulch. The current proposal would include new office buildings, retail development, restaurants and housing.

We don’t like that.” She points to the great irony of the City touting public art to preserve Black history, yet acting in ways that displaces and disinvests in black communities.
