If this project actually gets off the ground it would certainly be a nice addition to the Midtown skyline...

Two years after first pitching the project, developers are tweaking a plan for Midtown’s former Symphony Center site to include a 70-story skyscraper, potentially making it one of the tallest buildings in the city.

Hope this happens - it would be nice to get a skyline changer after all these midrises.

It's bad now, cq, with the same MARTA access. It's gonna get worse no matter how many times folks say MARTA. Transit is not the panacea that some folks dream it to be.

Then I guess it will encourage more people to use the system or encourage their leadership for expansion.

I imagine it will encourage more people to use the system. It will also result in far more traffic congestion.
