A major architectural marvel is reshaping Atlanta's skyline, the 1072 West Peachtree tower, a soaring 60-storey structure currently under construction in the heart of Midtown. Designed by Atlanta-based architectural firm TVS and backed by the Rockefeller Group from New York, this sleek high-rise is set to become the city's tallest building erected in more than three decades.
Once finished, the skyscraper will stand at 228 meters (749 feet), making it Atlanta's tallest residential building and the tallest mixed-use tower in the city. It will also rank as the fifth tallest structure overall in Atlanta. The tower is being built in three distinct segments: Base: A 9-storey podium that will house parking
Middle section: An 8-storey office block featuring a modern, grid-like stone façade
Upper section: A stunning residential tower clad almost entirely in glass, offering panoramic views of the city
Construction is progressing swiftly, with work already past the 20th floor. The concrete foundation and structural work for the lower office levels are now complete.
A standout feature will be found on the 10th floor, where residents will enjoy a range of upscale amenities — including fitness centers, stylish lounges, and what's being touted as Atlanta's largest outdoor amenity deck. This deck will sit beneath the office floors, which stretch from the 11th to the 18th floor.
The base of 1072 West Peachtree will be wrapped in warm-toned limestone and concrete, creating a solid and elegant foundation for the sleek glass tower above. This earthy palette grounds the modern design while complementing the surrounding architecture of Atlanta's Midtown.
At street level, the building is set to buzz with life, featuring commercial dining spaces and retail outlets. Separate, thoughtfully designed lobbies will welcome office workers and residents, ensuring a smooth flow and clear division between the building's mixed-use functions.
The project is expected to be completed in 2026.
Currently, Bank of America Plaza remains the tallest building in Atlanta, at the height to 312 meters (1,023 feet). Designed by Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo and Associates, it has dominated the skyline since its completion. Many of Atlanta's tallest and most iconic structures are clustered along Peachtree Street.
Other major developments that have transformed Atlanta's cityscape in recent years include the Mercedes-Benz Stadium — completed in 2017 by HOK — and a set of modern office towers joined by a glass skybridge, designed by Olson Kundig.

Goldman funds $600 million equity for Coca-Cola India unit sale
Goldman Sachs Asset Management has provided $600 million to partially fund the equity investment needed by Indian conglomerate Jubilant Bhartia Group for its purchase of a 40% stake in The Coca-Cola Co.'s bottling unit in India, according to people familiar with the matter. Goldman Sachs Asset Management's hybrid fund financed this equity portion by subscribing to the convertible preference shares issued by the group, said the people, who asked not to be named discussing a private matter. The fund — which is part of the investment bank's private credit strategy — sits between traditional debt and equity, and is usually longer in tenure. Convertible preference shares is one of the many ways companies can raise capital to fund their operations and expansion. They can choose to do so because it enables them to avoid taking on debt, while limiting the potential dilution of selling additional common stock. Goldman Sachs and Jubilant Bhartia declined to comment. Coca-Cola in December announced that Jubilant Bhartia will acquire a minority stake in Hindustan Coca-Cola Holdings Pvt., the parent company of the soft drink maker's largest bottler in India called Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Pvt. The total acquisition cost is $1.5 billion, the people said. The pizza-to-pharmaceuticals conglomerate will fund the remaining $900 million required for the acquisition with $600 million of equity and $300 million in debt, the people added. Two subsidiaries of the group — Jubilant BevCo and Jubilant Beverages — recently issued rupee-denominated bonds totaling $658 million-equivalent to fund the deal, Bloomberg News reported. Jubilant Bhartia's purchase of a stake in the beverage giant joins a series of foreign firms looking to divest part of their shareholding in local arms. In December, the Indian unit of South Korea-based LG Electronics Inc. filed for an initial public offering, seeking to tap investors in the South Asian country's booming market. Earlier last year, British American Tobacco Plc raised $2 billion selling shares in its Indian partner. --With assistance from Divya Patil.

The current pre-series A raise is for over $1 million, bringing the total capital raised by the company to $2 million to date, the Wipro Group's venture capital firm said in a statement.
