Summary
Join us for Bisnow's Atlanta State of the Market, our largest event of the year - to hear where Atlanta has been for 2017 and what major trends will drive growth in a forecast for 2018.
Atlanta is building off its incredible midway point - with retail absorbing the most space since 2008, office absorbing the most space since 2015, and industrial leading the nation in space absorbed year-to-date - but also seeing a few blips in the radar with a lackluster Q3 in office.
Atlanta also has one of the strongest economies in the nation and job growth at 2x the national average - boasting a highly-educated workforce, unparalleled transportation, and a business-driven environment which has consistently attracted the top talent and firms in the nation and world.
