I happening to be driving on Virginia Avenue today by Delta Corporate headquarters building. Why want Delta paint those buildings and do some outside upgrades. With all the records profits from Delta surely a new paint job could not be impossible. Those Delta buildings currently look a hot mess right now. Come on hometown airline.

What are you talking about? The buildings are brick -no paint-?
The Delta campus looks pretty good. Landscaped grounds with outside sitting areas, barbecue grills, shaded tables. Inside there is a Starbucks, fitness center, bank and even a mini Walmart.
You didn't see the Delta campus.

I thought the same thing... but maybe I'm wrong...

a better way of saying this is .... they need to pressure wash some of the concrete structures under the brick and repaint some non-brick surfaces at ground level... maybe I'm wrong?

They do have a few dirty spots that could be cheaply cleaned up. I don't notice them much, because I just see the brick...like you.

Delta's campus is fine but they have always been a no frills operation. They're into flying planes, not trying to impress anyone with fancy offfices.

The buildings are mainly brick, especially the GO. The only qualm I have is the satellite offices around the main building is they have too little parking.

If you are complaining about the outside of some of these buildings, wait until you see the inside. Like arjay57 said, no frills.

Are you talking about the old hanger near the corporate buildings Atlwarrior? It is very old and weathered looking, but it kind of looks cool too.

Echo everybody else, the brick buildings look fine last time I looked.

They are in the process of overhauling the old hangers on their campus into the Delta museum: Delta museum to get $6M revamp (SLIDESHOW) - Atlanta Business Chronicle

Sorry guys, and thanks for clarifying cwkimbro. I meant pressure wash, and cleaned up some of those dirty spots.
