ATLANTA - Located in the heart of Midtown Atlanta, the Loews Atlanta Hotel opened April 1, 2010 as the anchor of the 12th and
Midtown urban mixed-use development project. The property
underwent environmental investigation through Georgia’s Section
128(a) Response Program and was certified to be in compliance
with residential risk reduction standards. The $1.2 billion 12th and
Midtown project was assembled from numerous individual parcels,
many of which are also enrolled in Georgia’s Brownfields Program.
According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, opening of the Loews
Atlanta Hotel created 220 jobs. Loews Atlanta Hotel is within walking
distance to many of the city’s Fortune 500 companies, leading law

Arts Center, the High Museum of Art, the Fox Theatre, Atlanta
Botanical Gardens and Piedmont Park. Loews Atlanta Hotel features
414 guest rooms, more than 25,000 square feet of meeting space,
