C&W Represents Grant Thornton in Midtown Relocation

Grant Thornton has relocated to Midtown. In December 2009, the leading accounting firm took possession of 22,346 square feet at 1100 Peachtree in Midtown Atlanta. C&W’s Office Tenant Representation Services team of Sam Hollis, Ken Ashley, and Quin Ryan represented Grant Thornton and identified the space that will help make the firm more efficient and attractive to top talent. Grant Thornton signed a 10-year lease.

We reviewed options throughout Atlanta,” said Sam Hollis, Senior Director at C&W, “and identified a space well-suited for Grant Thornton’s needs in Midtown. This wasn’t about submarket, but about being in a vibrant location that worked to support Grant Thornton’s business objectives. In the heart of Midtown, 1100 Peachtree is that location.”

Glenn Kolker of Carter represented the Landlord.
