Norfolk Southern Breaks Ground on new Atlanta Corporate HQ
Norfolk Southern was joined by Georgia state and city leaders at a groundbreaking ceremony to launch construction of its new 750,000-square-foot corporate headquarters building in Atlanta. Norfolk Southern engaged Atlanta-based Cousins Properties to oversee construction of the complex.
Cousins Properties’ Colin Connolly says, “We share their [Norfolk Southern’s] vision in creating an iconic project that will have a positive impact on the Midtown community and the Norfolk Southern team.”
Located on a 3.4-acre property at 650 West Peachtree St., the two-tower glass structure will feature a campus-style hub connecting the towers, serving as a destination for employees to work and socialize throughout the day. Plans call for the building to be completed and occupied by Norfolk Southern in the third quarter of 2021.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp says, It’s a great day in Georgia when a Fortune 500 company returns home to its Atlanta roots and breaks ground on a beautiful new headquarters building in Midtown.”
