A talent agency that counts Ewan McGregor, Chris Pratt, the Jonas Brothers, Post Malone and Stacey Abrams among its clients is opening its first Atlanta office in an adaptive reuse project in Midtown.
)
United Talent Agency has inked a deal for nearly 20K SF at the 1401 Peachtree St. building at Boundary, Parkside Partners’ three-building adaptive reuse project in Midtown. The move follows an announcement last year by UTA that it intended to open an Atlanta office that will house all of the agency’s 40 divisions, from film and television to gaming, sports, music and podcasting.
JLL Executive Vice President Jeff Heller represented UTA in the deal. UTA is looking to build out office space on the first floor and basement at the Boundary for more than $4M, with Leapley Construction acting as the general contractor, according to a series of applications with the city.
UTA also plans to house a public museum at its office, featuring artwork from local artists, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution previously reported.
