ATLANTA Microsoft is building a new business campus on Atlanta’s west side. The project will create jobs and pump some new life into a community that has had some issues over the years.
The 90-acre Microsoft project will be a new landmark in an old part of an Atlanta commonly known as Bankhead.
The site had been previously called Quarry Yards named for another development that never materialized as expected.
But in a virtual announcement, the president of Microsoft assured Atlanta’s mayor and Georgia’s governor that this project would take root very soon.
