An article in the SaportaReport discusses the two billion dollars in investments near Northside Drive in downtonwn Atlanta. It is thought that the money "Ought to go a long way toward promoting the rejuvenation of a gritty, five-mile stretch of the road located south of I-75...and the study from Georgia Tech posits that this investment may catalyze landowners and civic leaders to evolve Northside Drive from a patchwork of low-density uses into a grand transit boulevard – one that links I-75 and I-20 as it passes Atlantic Station, Georgia Tech, new Falcons stadium, the Atlanta University Center and West End – that induces new east-west connectivity."
