The amount of money contracts made off of that stadium is



Plus they are planning a sixth runway and new terminal at the airport over the next 15-20 years



Contracts are going to be eating like crazy in this city

shyt which one?

Philips is undergoing a $200 million dollar renovation as we speak

MBS is reshaping the whole Vine City/English Ave...I would hope it would extend to the AUC and Castleberry Hills but I won't get my hopes up

SunTrust Park was self serving with the formation of The Battery but for brehs in business in that Cobb Pkwy, Delk Rd, Interstate 75 corridor, you winning

Man what a time

Aman has secret black support.

I personally like hall but Mitchell has the support of the old school black elite.

Bottoms has support by the black women of Atlanta which due to our makeup is the biggest voting block we have.

I don't think that number is substantial enough within city limits to move the needle.

It's not but it's enough to cause some problems

MBS in particular, the Business Chronicle did a story about the minority contracts given out on the stadium and it was a healthy sum

I can't tell you that you are wrong but I don't get the sense that the realistic voting block of black women that live in city limits is enough for her to be a factor.

Specifically $152 million to black owned companies

That goes back to the business dealings that @CashmereEsquire and @Warren Moon have spoken about in here that will influence the mayoral race. If you can't make a compelling case to the affluent black voter in SW ATL that lives off Cascade, Camp Creek or in Buckhead you're not winning this race. They will not allow for somebody to come in and mess the money up

That area on Cascade going past 285 into unincorporated Fulton Co, Camp Creek going towards Fulton Ind, shyt South Fulton as a whole has an amazing net worth. You might think you in Duluth or Alpharetta when you look at the homes out there, only difference is that they're all black owned
