Renovation of Old DeVry Buildings Begins Next Week

Decatur Metro | January 27, 2014

The Decatur City Commission voted last week to split up the DeVry property along Arcadia Ave into three separate parcels.  Now Decaturish reports the site will undergo renovation starting next week.  According to the site…

“The building as it is right now will stay and the entire interior will be renovated and the outside will be improved,” [Harvey] Rudy [ a managing principal with GP-Govt. Properties I, LLC] said.

When the renovation is complete, it will be 83,000 square feet of office space that will house dental offices, a women’s clinic and a radiology clinic.

More info over at Decaturish.

Winter Storm Watch Expands to Atlanta Metro

Decatur Metro | January 27, 2014

Where did this come from?  From the AJC [bolding mine]…

The winter storm watch posted for Tuesday for the southern suburbs southward through middle Georgia has been expanded northward to include almost all of metro Atlanta, with forecasters warning that a “significant” winter storm is likely.

The watch, which goes into effect Tuesday morning and continues into early Wednesday, was initially issued Sunday for Clayton, Coweta, Fayette and Henry counties southward. But early Monday, the National Weather Service added Cobb, Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Paulding, Douglas, Carroll, Haralson, Barrow, Jackson and Madison counties to the watch area.

The Weather Service said snow accumulations of a half inch to 2 inches are possible in those new counties, while south of there, accumulations of 1 to 3 inches are possible.
