Norcross' Pinnacle Business Park was close to being nearly emptywhen owner Chicago-based Wrightwood Capital decided to change its marketing strategy.

The strategy seems to be working. In less than 10 months, Bill and his team have sold 50% of the park to a mix of users and individual investors, including Omega Bio-Tek, which purchased 400 Pinnacle Way (pictured) for $1.18M and Cape Engineering, which purchased 500 Pinnacle Way for $1.2M.
