This move will certainly boost Atlanta's reputation for being the home of world-class institutions

United Methodist Church’s mission agency, Global Ministries, unveiled a first look a its new headquarters in Atlanta after announcing last year it would leave its home of nearly 200 years in New York City.
The agency is in the process of working through its restructuring and expects 150 jobs to come to Atlanta.

Hopefully they can use some of the millions they have and help those residents who live along Boulevard and suffer from disinvestment.

Being that this building will house the UMC's global ministries arm to support works in impoverished nations all over the globe, I'd say the folks along Boulevard have it pretty good in comparison. Even so, the church that the headquarters will share space with engages the local community in various ways: http://www.graceonponce.org/#/reach

Nice try though.

I am glad to see the Methodists staying put.

Dr. Charles Allen was a remarkable man and he would be pleased to see this work being carried on in his old bailiwick.
