Renew the District

Fulton County has launched the Renew the District initiative, resulting in a significant redevelopment of the Fulton Industrial Boulevard corridor over the next five years. The three-pronged Renew the District plan focuses on: 

• Commercial Revitalization: redevelopment of formerly blighted properties and reimagining of existing spaces around the corridor
• Capital Investment: Modern Public Services
• Renewal of the Fulton County Airport

Fulton County is currently considering bids from prospective developers for 301 & 305 Fulton Industrial Circle Atlanta, GA 30336 totaling 8.1 acres along the Fulton Industrial District. To learn more, view the marketing brochure or click the image below.

Commercial Revitalization

Over the last two years, Fulton County has acquired seven blighted properties along the FIB corridor, including five hotels. The $15.9 million investment represents approximately 17 acres.

Starting in 2024, County will issue Request for Development services to explore options for redevelopment of these properties, which may include amenitized commercial and industrial redevelopment. The County also sought and gained approval for a State Opportunity Zone designations on all County owned properties in 2024, 1 of only 3 approved in the entire state.

Capital Investment: Modern Public Services

Fulton County is investing $55 million in two major capital projects, including the new Fulton County Animal Shelter and a new Public Safety Training facility. The Animal Shelter was completed in 2023 with plans for the new Public Safety Training facility in 2025.

Both projects will replace outdated infrastructure in other areas of Fulton County with modern, purpose-build facilities, and will catalyze other developments within the Fulton Industrial corridor.

Renewal of Fulton County Executive Airport at Brown Field (FTY)

The Fulton County Executive Airport at Brown Field is undergoing an Airport Master Plan that will project growth over the next 20 years, including redevelopment of current facilities on airport property. The Airport Master Plan was completed in 2024.

The Airport Master plan will consider the results of a 2020 study by the Urban Land Institute, which provided recommendations for opportunities for reimagining of properties adjacent to the Fulton County Airport.
