The city is home to international companies, U.S.-based corporations, and numerous small businesses with a significant number of office buildings headquartered within its 500-acre Technology Park. The city’s newly constructed Town Center, along with the adjoining two-acre Town Green, offers its residents, work force and visitors a wide array of events, activities, entertainment, dining and shopping options.
“Peachtree Corners is striving to improve the community’s energy and transportation sustainability,” said City Manager Brian Johnson. “To this effort, we are working to increase the availability of electric vehicle charging stations within the community for office workspace, retail, hotel, institutional, industrial and multi-family property.”
Peachtree Corners is also home to a smart city and intelligent mobility living laboratory called Curiosity Lab, comprised of a technology incubator with 5G capabilities, a three-mile autonomous vehicle test track, and facilities for permanent and temporary technology development.
