Weird location, nice move for Atlanta.


Apparently last month Krystal, the fastfood burger joint, announced that they will also be opening up a headquarters in Atlanta ALSO by the airport:

The Porsche Headquarters has been known for some time. They are actually moving from Sandy Springs and needed alot of land for a test track. They might also hope to bring in some high price customers or clients for an experience.

Krystal is moving to Atlanta, however not by the airport. They are looking for space near the Perimeter area. They want access to the airport for business travel. This is a pretty common trend for Atlanta.

If Krystal would move next to the airport, guess Atlanta would be taking a baby step toward the promised Aerotropolis Dr Kasarda said would be in our future.

Been known for a long time.

I doubt Krystals could move their headquarters to Aerotroplois due to building height restrictions.

It was news to me. I saw 11 Alive playing in a gas station today.

It's nice to see so many companies making moves in Hotlanta.

I'm still waiting for someone from Baxter pharmaceuticals to give me a call. I'll move to Covington in a second!

You could work your way through a Sackful while driving 180 mph.

Here's another nice bump for development around the airport.


Quote:
Another major company is set to relocate near Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, days after Porsche broke ground on its new North American headquarters nearby.

Triumph Motorcycles said Thursday it will move from Newnan to the Hartsfield Centre office complex, relocating about 50 jobs to Atlanta. The British manufacturing company said it plans to add dozens more employees in the next five years.

Don't like it leaving Newnan. But if it does lead to a net addition of jobs, then I would consider it a positive move.

Has anyone other than Porsche laid out plans to build at Aerotroplois?
