Atlanta, GA

The Atlanta market has proven to be both reliable and resilient over the last few years.

Overall spending here has remained relatively constant, never exceeding 5% over the last 5 years. We expect this to continue over the next five years, if not longer.

Highways that were built in the 1950s are approaching the end of their lifespan. In Atlanta, the proposal to remove Interstate 75/85 is gaining steam. Doing so would, proponents argue, encourage more walkable neighborhoods and spur investment in the city’s light-rail network. Electric vehicle manufacturing is also seeing a lot of attention from city officials, and there are two factories – one for the vehicles themselves and one for batteries – in the works already. The construction market has added around 10,000 new workers in anticipation. Hopefully this will keep costs from rising too high.
