Between 2006 and 2015, there were 11 buildings more than 1 million square feet added to the city’s inventory, with seven of those south of Interstate 20, three in the Northeast 85 corridor and one on the Interstate 20 West Corridor. As Atlanta’s economy roared back in 2016, the market exploded with 17 new big-box facilities in just five years. While prior to 2015 the field of players constructing these …
